What happened: The bid ended right after action resumed following a PitchCom delay. Hoerner pushed a trickler down the third-base line, where Machado made a sliding stop but could not complete the play.

Why it matters: It kept King deep into a Game 1 start with Petco Park already loud. That length preserves high-leverage arms if the opener stretches into a series.

What to watch: Watch King's pitch count the next time through the order and when the bullpen gets loose.
