    I guess I don’t mind the call but has Scooter ever do e that play? Maybe in high school but he was probably a stud 3 hitter.

    I thought Ervin's poor outfield and throwing play had been corrected?

    The odds are against any hitter driving in a run with 2 outs.
    The odds are against any hitter getting a hit since if they do it 30% if the time they are pretty good at it. But this isn't Game 7 of the World Series. Let the kid hit. It's classic overmanaging.

    That was the first inning.

    Looks more familiar all of the sudden. That double has him rattled/pitching scared.

    It's not a hard play for the runner going to 2nd. Steal 2nd and stop about two thirds of the way down. The toughest part is on the runner at third. He needs to time his break art the right time and I think Ervin did that. Scooter just went way too far.

    Ervin has the yips or something with these throws. They are comically bad.

    I thought he was dead at the plate if Ervin hits the cutoff man.

    I like Ervins offense but his defense is really bad hopefully it improves a lot.

    Rob has been good at Louisville, but same 'ol same 'ol here in the Bigs.
    Lead off walk leads to a run.

    So Conforto looks at 6 pitches and walks and Jackson jumps on a first pitch fastball. Besides that (and the ball in the dirt to Mes) things seem to be going ok?

    And people are talking about him being the center fielder? SMH.
