Long fly ball in 10th inning confused Dodgers outfielder Andrew Toles in costly error in judgement

Andrew Toles didn’t know if the one-out fly ball he hit to the wall in the 10th inning Saturday was caught by Angels left fielder Justin Upton, who stumbled and fell on the warning track, or went over the wall for a home run.

The Dodgers outfielder, his team trailing by a run, slowed up between first and second base as the ball bounced behind Upton and then under him. Toles didn’t want to risk getting thrown out at third so he stopped at second, an error in judgment that would prove costly in an eventual 5-4 loss to the Angels.
