Cano-to-Guiel play at 1B

Surely someone saw the play just now in the Yankees-Tigers game. Robinson Cano made a fine play on a ground ball in the hole, and his throw drew Yankee F3 Guiel into the baseline behind the bag. The throw was just barely in time to get the BR, who collided (unavoidably) with Guiel and knocked him down immediately after he gloved the throw. Both players went down. The 1B umpire delayed his out call, apparently after checking to see that Wilson had held the ball.

The time between the ball hitting the glove and the runner hitting F3 looked like about a tenth of a second. I was almost hoping Guiel would drop the ball to see what the call would have been. This seemed to me a perfect example of that often-discussed ambiguity involving immediate collisions after "outs" at 1B.

Anybody else see it?

(Sorry—the original subject should have said Guiel, not Wilson.)
