The phrase "stays with it" indicates that he picked up the ball and then throws the runner out.

It might be clearer if it read, "but he stays with it... picks it up... and throws out the runner."
Yeah, I'm confused more by the post than the pbp. That's what prompted my question. I don't see anything wrong with it.
