Tim Lincecum Falls Down, Goes Balk

Stay connected with SB Nation

There are few baseball things I love more than a pitcher falling down during his windup. It's a thing of beauty, really, made even better when runners move up a base. The "fall down go balk" is a power move, and Tim Lincecum put it to use on Friday night.

This is a good and certainly enjoyable angle:

Just kind of looks like he changes his mind and decides "nah, I don't like this pitch." But let's take another look.

All of the LOLs. Seriously. Not pictured in this GIF: The runner on third. So he balked in a run.

And the inning before this happened, Lincecum -- in the most Lincecum moment ever -- forgot how many outs there were.

He also won easily, so there's that.
