ATLANTA - It happened in a matter of seconds, as these things often do. One moment, Pedro Feliz is at the plate in the eighth inning of a tie game, and Jayson Werth is on third base ready to run with two outs, and a high 2-2 pitch from Mike Gonzalez is bouncing off the webbing of Brian McCann's glove and caroming to the backstop.

The next, McCann is whipping a throw, and Werth is sliding headfirst into home, and Gonzalez is swiping his glove and umpire Mike Everitt is hovering above it all, poised to make a call that could very well decide the outcome of the game.
