Jose Abreu Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Anyone who thinks that was on Anderson is likely padding their agenda. That's on Skole. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caulfield12 Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Here we go again with the defense. Abreu really should have helped out Gonzalez, he was close enough to call him off and make that play. Skole SHOULD have scooped that ball out of the dirt, it wasn’t an exceedingly difficult ball to catch compared to most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juco players don't catch for ML pitchers. This is basic 2+2 catching. Every single solitary catcher will tell you that has to be blocked. Sutcliffe simply explained the reasoning as to why Gonzalez may have made the miscue. He didn't say it wasn't a miscue. Inexcusable and this isn't really a conversation.

When the ball bounced in, Gomes was 2 feet from the bag. Not sure how that qualifies as “all the time in the world,” but one pump and he would have been safe regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said “you see 7 K’s in 6 innings and you think that maybe he didn’t have his best stuff,” and then you evidently didn’t hear Benetti chuckle. He was obviously being sarcastic.
