Reds won it in the 10th with a Balk Off.

That's pretty picky, but my assumption is Wisler typically starts his stretch movement with that tap. So even if was asking for another sign from the catcher, it looked close enough to the start of his typical stretch routine. Once you start that, you can't stop or it's a balk.
Ballsy call by blue. That's for sure.
Edit: That had to be it. I found this video of Wisler from last year. He does a little bounce with his glove against his hip before he goes to the stretch:
