Throwing to F3 off the base.

Don't we have an obvious attempt to retire the runner in the second pick also?

Can it be an obvious attempt if F3 is not in a position to be able to retire the runner?  

I've got a balk.

If Altuve had continued back to the bag on the first one . . . obstruction, anybody?

You haven't seen Evan's video I guess. Back then the criteria was if there was a play on. But things could have changed. It happened again today with LAA - Yankees. It will show up in Boones ejection when CCS reports on it.

The tag was closer than one would think for "not in a position to be able to retire the runner"

Fair point . . . 

. . . and the first car wreck I was involved in was a lady who ran a stop sign "but almost made it."  That was her legal defense for clipping me.  Guess who was wrong (and not "almost right")?
