Less than two our very fast runner on first and speedy lefty at the plate. Batter hits a routine ground ball to second baseman's right who was already cheating toward the hole. She fields it tries to tag the runner going to second but the runner makes an athletic move and avoids the tag - safe at second. Fielder then throws to first base but not in time.
Had she thrown to either base it would have probably been an out. Fielder's choice on the out at second, or ground out on the batter. But the time she wasted missing the tag allowed the batter to be safe. Still fielder's choice?
