The throw from right to home was a little weak and off line plus she hesitated. The throw from left to short was fine, it was the throw from short to home that was bad. The throw from CF to home had some extra oomph to it that started offline and then tailed like a lot of throws from the outfield do. Fielding ground balls uncleanly leads to rushing and bad throws.
