My guess is it looked like he might catch it so Basabe had to hold up near first so as to not get doubled-up. You'd rather stay too close to first and get thrown out at second than go too far and get doubled-up. Could also be that the RF caught him rounding second. |

Lowell's season ends.
Salem's season goes on, for at least one more night.

I believe if he was beaten to the bag by the right fielder, Devers would have had a fielder's choice, not a single, even though it went to right field. |

^ Great point.
EDIT: Actually, nevermind. Per MLB Rule 2:
So the other way could still work. I don't necessarily disagree with your point though.

LOL, if I get time I'll try to look at that play, I think the game is in archive. Building (straw-bossing) a house though so...
