I didn't see the play or a replay. But my guess is that he stopped at first because he didn't think he could make it to 2nd without drawing a throw.

Would you be this upset if this play would have happened in the third inning and the Angels still won?

Would you be this upset if the Angels had gotten Chede out and won it in the 10th inning?

It reminds me of all the Cardinal fans who hate Don Denkinger when he blew a call in game 6 of the 85 series. Or the people who think Bill Buckner lost the 86 series, or that Steve Bartman cost the Cubs a shot at the 2003 World Series. The fact is that umpires make mistakes. I believe they are usually HONEST mistakes. Good teams overcome that, and I'm sure Mike Scioscia has told his team to concentrate on tomorrow's game.

As you can see, a reasoned approach isn't working here.
