Triple-A pitcher called for balk from gust of wind
Strong winds can easily affect a baseball game, but that typically involves a fly ball.
During Sunday's Triple-A game between the Salt Lake Bees and Omaha Storm Chasers, strong winds in Utah were too much for Salt Lake starter Troy Scribner to handle. Eventually, a particularly severe gust literally pushed Scribner off the mound, causing a balk.
That's a new one.
The balk advanced a runner to third base, but Scribner was able to pitch out of the jam without allowing a run.
Salt Lake would win, 5-2.
