Correa was where you'd expect a SS to be in backing up the 3rd baseman and made a fairly routine play to pick up the ball and throw it home and got Bo by 6 ft.
I think Buck and Dan bit their tounges on the broadcast, as while neither are homers nor overly critical, that was a blunder which really didn't need pointing out and changed the dynamics of a tight game.
Worst case scenario is the next batter pops out. Best case scenario is the Jays take the lead in the game with the next batter. Anything or any runs in between 0 and 4 in that inning and it's a differently played game from that point forward.

While I agree with you, and at the time seen it as another mindless play, it happened really fast. So it was definitely the wrong move, but even the guy most of us hate, Correa, made a really good play from this other angle here.
