There were no dropped balls or missed throws. If he WAS safe (he wasn't) it would have been a legitimate infield single as he just simply beat out the throw.

Errors in baseball are weird. If a ball is hit to the shortstop and he holds onto it and doesn't bother to easily throw a dude out... single.

If two players just miss a popup between them with neither actually touching it... also a hit.
