During a game of baseball, a man takes a base while his opponent reaches for a ball and another man looks on.
A man is one base away from winning the game.
Just because a man takes a base does not mean that he is one base away from winning the game.  There is no way to infer whether or not a man is getting ready to win or lose the game from the fact that he is on the base.
