It would be a bearing failure. When replacing bearings the crank journals should be measured in 3 places to look for an out of round condition, and of course the rods are measured with the bearings installed and the caps torqued to spec. Then compare to the crank journal to arrive at the correct tolerances. So doubtfull it was the rod it'self, but a bearing failure. The key is to detrimne what caused the failure.
