I say--EASY call.

Davidson did not see him miss the base so he MUST call safe!

Instead of a runner in scoring position with the leadoff batter coming up, the inning was over and the Astros lost the game in the next inning.

He had time to think it over. He KNEW he did not see Oswalt miss the base. He decided to make a horse-dookey call.
