Not really clear what transpired on the double steal attempt with Beck on first and Long on third. I'm not sure if the whole idea was for Beck to intentionally try to get caught up in a pick off attempt or not. He went up to Long after the play giving me the impression that maybe Long should have maybe gone home sooner than he did. As for the balks on McMillon, the guy on tv said McMillon actually balked on a pitch or two before his first balk call. After getting called for his first balk I was surprised neither Hayward or Tadlock went out to the mound to make sure he didn't balk in the run. Tadlock later mentioned in the post game interview he made a mistake by not going out to the mound earlier to consult with McMillon. Thought it was stand-up on Tadlock's part to admit when he makes mistakes.
