Watch this video! A bizarre pitch/balk from Detroit Tigers pitcher Justin Verlander. According to Verlander he wanted to make a pick off move to first, but didn’t turn his body. Instead he decided to throw home, which ended up hitting batter David DeJesus. The ruling on the field was a balk, and DeJesus was sent back to the plate.
