First of all it would have taken the ball a split second to get to the 2nd baseman. The guy was out by a split seond. Secondly he would have been moving when he fielded the ball as was the pitcher. two moving objects have a much greater chance of error than one moving target. And the corner infielders always cut off the ball when they can. Cabarera actually made the proper play by not rushing the throw and waiting for the pitcher to get into position.
