Beckham gets the double play and this inning's completely different.

 

Hosmer's was the only hard hit ball.

But he did not SOS.........IF DeAza does not make a out at 3rd Saturday..............IF GB turns the DP...........bad pattern equals losing baseball.

30+ pitches already.

 

Not a very good throw by Eaton at all. Gordon smartly tags up and gets to 2nd base.

Are you kidding? He had him dead to rights at 3B.

Pretty soon I will need to get out the clockwork orange apparatus

Not a very good throw by Eaton at all.

 

Wat.

Now it's Dunn's turn to screw up on defense.

Three "errors" this inning.

 

Two bad decisions and throws by Eaton and the original misplay by Beckham that wouldn't have been ruled a hit in any other stadium in America.

Stop saying his throw was bad, Caulfield. He nailed Butler and Semien booted the scoop

Mam I'm really tired of bad baseball

Now we'll lose 6-5

5 runs on 5 hits no errors given I see.

So essentially we have 3 errors this inning, yes?

If Semien catches the ball at 3B and Dunn doesn't miss the cutoff those throws result in 2 outs.

Ramirez is the only good infielder (non-1B) in the organization.

I strongly disagree. I love what Micah Johnson's been doing. I also think Matt Davidson will turn it around.

3 errors and none of them are ruled errors. LOL. Nice hometown scoring. When can baseball finally change this? Have some interns in a central location making these rulings.

Sadly yes

I heard Micah Johnson is bad on defense and Davidson was never known as a plus defender and he hasn't proven he can hit yet.

Talk about being behind the eight ball lately to start a game.

Are you kidding? He had him dead to rights at 3B.

 

But he didn't get him and that allowed the trail runner to get to 2nd, wiping out the double play situation...with Carroll being a sinker-ball/double play artist, if he has one good trait, that's it.

From what I've read Micah is not all that with the glove

If Semien catches the ball at 3B and Dunn doesn't miss the cutoff those throws result in 2 outs.

The extra work in Spring training sure is paying off.

If Semien catches the ball at 3B and Dunn doesn't miss the cutoff those throws result in 2 outs.

 

Anytime the throw goes into the ground on a throw it makes it that much more difficult and unpredictable to catch.

Then your blame should be put on Semien for either not picking that ball, or not coming up the baseline to catch it.

Nice slide by Tank.

I heard Micah Johnson is bad on defense and Davidson was never known as a plus defender and he hasn't proven he can hit yet.

I didn't know defense was being specified. Davidson hit very well last year.

The poor fielding is obscuring the real problem which is starting Noesi, Danks, and Carroll back-to-back-to-back.
