Upton hit a regular grounder to short, but Rockies shortstop Troy Tulowitzki had to take an extra step to his right to avoid the barrel of Upton's bat. Tulowitzki made a great throw to first, but it was a step too late.
As the announcers pointed out, that's why you need to hustle down the line, because weird things happen and you just never know.
