I actually missed it, as I was glazing over from the game-long trainwreck of LOB and David Peterson being David Peterson and his successors being David Peterson as well. Only looked up from my computer at the words "two runs score due to the error by Brett Baty and the Dodgers take the lead!" from Gary.

I suppose I should check it out, watch the Mets become heir to the 1917 Giants, with Alvarez playing Bill Rariden to Baty's Heinie Zimmerman. (Look it up.)

The difference is, the White Sox who took advantage of those Giant brain-farts was Eddie Collins, speedy 2B who led the AL in SB several times. Javy Baez embarrassed the Pirates in 2021, but Javy is also blessed with speed. These guys couldn't catch a catcher. Yumpin' Yiminy!!

So, three chokes in four games turns what should have been a sweep into a split. I appreciate the tribute act to my LA Kings' performance against Edmonton, guys, but really.

Off to face the red-hot Rox. We play this way there, we can have the Pile up to the soaring heights of .231 ball (15-50) by Monday!

*******
BTW, not that I was exactly missing the defensive stylings of Mark Vientos (even given the alternative…), but where was he? I missed the first inning dealing with…issues, so I didn't get the details from Gary. Did Swaggy V break a toe in solidarity with Lindor or something?
