KANSAS CITY -- On Sunday, Twins second baseman Brian Dozier led off with a sharp grounder that Royals third baseman Cheslor Cuthbert grabbed on a dive.
Cuthbert got up, fired to first, but the throw was low and away. First baseman Eric Hosmer made a tremendous pick, only it appeared Dozier beat the throw. Dozier was ruled safe.
"I didn't even think about challenging that," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "And neither did Hoz or anyone on the bench. It was obvious to us, Dozier was safe."
But about 20 seconds later, one of the dugout phones rang.
