How to throw a spitball in MLB 14 The Show and get away with it

When you are pitching, force a balk to be called when a runner is on base.  Until a patch is released, this can possibly cause the game to freeze.  The last gamer to shut down MLB 14 The Show will be given the win.  Another way to force a standoff is to throw dirtball.  The game might not freeze but it has been known to cause your batter to go into an endless warmup loop in the batters box.  The only way to get out of this loop is to shut down the game.  Again, the last player to quit gets the win. 

I know of one user who has a reputation for abusing these glitches.  I faced x42Moonwalkerx (also known as Mike_Jackson42) last night when he threw a balk and the game froze up.  Mike_Jackson42 is an experienced player and most experienced players usually won't throw balks so easily.  There's no way for me to prove that it was simply an accident on his part but he does have a reputation for his cheesy style of play:

1.  Last year, Mike_Jackson42 lived off of sidearmers.  Now that most of the sidearm deliveries are disallowed in Diamond Dynasty 3.0 he has switched to the legal Dennis Eckersley style delivery for all of his pitchers.

2.  He also plays about 90% of his games in his home ballpark.  During the matchup phase, if he can tell that he'll be the visiting team he'll backout and try to find another matchup.  He claims he does this to help avoid laggy games but it's still unfair for everyone else.

3.  See videos below:
