Sal-
The Astro batter thought the pitch was ball four when it was actually ball three. He left for first, as did R1 for 2nd. Bob Davidson called time to call the batter back to the plate. Seeing Davidson call time, Paul Schrieber, U1, called time as well. Berkman was caught in a rundown, as he and the Mets infielders did not know time had been called. When Willie Randolph was told time had been called and Berkman was still entitled to first base, he went crazy and Sandy Alomar began yelling as well. The main question here is why Davidson called time to allow the batter to return to the plate.
