I suspect his point was the focus is on the runner on 3rd, therefore he missed the guy on second. Napoli vacated his cutoff position to go cover first. If he is the cut I think Davis throws it to him. Davis hesitated a second because I think he knew he didn't have to throw it all the way home but he didn't want to just toss it to a guy ten feet in front of him just in case. Hard to know what kind of communication was going on in front of him.
Ideally he has a real cut and throws it to him. Didn't look like there was a cut for him to throw to. Personally I put it on that. I don't need my 1B going back to cover first. To be fair though, that runner was also a mile off of first.
