In the top of the seventh inning May 22, Kansas City’s Jorge Soler stood on second base when Alcides Escobar hit a grounder up the middle that was fielded by Starlin Castro.

The Yankees were clinging to a one-run lead, and Castro made a one-hop throw to Chris Carter at first. Escobar was called safe, and Soler raced home, beating Carter’s throw to the plate to tie the game in The Bronx.

Adam Warren thought he had blown the lead.

“I thought he was safe,” Warren said.
