They are playing for a ball hit into the outfield on that play, not a soft infield single, that's why he's closer to the bag to be able to successfully tag.

I agree with this. They were gonna test Teoscar’s arm on basically any fly ball. They were definitely playing for a fly ball
And Rojas made a good play and great throw. That grpund ball is 1 foot to his right or left and he can’t plant his back foot and make that throw home in time. Hit right at him, he gathers himself and plants his back foot and fires
