1 umpire called an extremely rare catcher's balk

From what I have read, a rare catcher's balk was called on the back up catcher for the Braves, Lunar, for not positioning himself within the confines of the catcher's box and the base runner was awarded an extra base. This was in the game played on June 24th between the Braves and the Brewers. In the box score, I noticed that the pitcher, Greg Maddux was cited for the balk.
