One day of bad decisions, many more examples throughout the year. If Giles doesn't get hurt game 3 of the season, we likely win it. Rowdy misses a game winning homer by 3 inches and we lose. Teoscar has a ball come off his bat at 100+ miles an hour right at a guy for an inning ending double play against Washington with Alford at third. 3 errors and 5 unearned runs in a game in which you score 11 and you lose. We've had a season of base running errors in 18 games.
It's frustrating. If the breaks have been even, and we had just half the mental errors this team could be 11 and 7 not 7 and 11. Now with Bo out it seems futile. Maybe the baseball gods will give back over the next 10 days. We certainly deserve a few breaks.
