Agree with the others. And this really isn't a timing play.

A timing play is when a runner tries to score just as the third out is being recorded on another runner, and that third out is not a force out, or an out on the batter before he reaches first safely. The "timing" of when that runner touches home (before or after the out) determines whether or not he scores.
