Was It A Balk?

In the Astros' Saturday loss at Dodger Stadium, reliever Ryne Stanek was called for a balk that scored the go-ahead run for the Dodgers.

But was it a balk? Stanek has a very slight move with his leg, but should that be cause for a balk call? What should be the spirit of the rule? Was the hitter deceived because of this slight movement?
