Perhaps if Daniel Robertson had not hit that grounder just in the right spot. It was an 0-1 fastball on the inner half that Robertson topped into the hole in short. The ball left J.A. Happ's hand at 92.5 miles per hour. If it were 92.7 perhaps Robertson hits it to Brad Miller at short. If it's 92.3 it could be a ground ball to the medium sized sinkhole that is Kyle Seager's glove. Instead it found its spot.
Without that maybe Happ doesn't miss 8 inches up to Kole Calhoun in the very next at-bat.
