My understanding is that since he does it the same every time, it isn't meant to deceive the runner and so it remains okay.

If he changed it or threw to second after the first hitch or something it would be a balk.
Gotcha. It’s pretty weird. Whatever works, I guess!

Outside of Gallegos, the Cardinals have maybe one other reliever (Cabrera) who can be trusted. This won't go many more innings either way.

Boo. Don’t want Dodgers to get a walk off definitely don’t want Mookie to have a part in it.
This checks out. Not suggesting you try to find one NOW, but amicable breakups are fucking awesome, especially later in life.

Terrible matchup on paper for Pujols. Watch him walk it off.
