I wonder who gets the blame if the same thing happens with Trout as the lead runner.

Lets count how many dumb plays Trout has done......since little league.

I am taking the under compared to Bour for April.

[bloodbrother]

Wheels coming off

[UndertheHalo]

He’s having trouble with that change up.  Should probably stay away from it here. 

[UndertheHalo]

Vlad jr.  failson. 

[Bronson]

Damn that’s an inning ending double play if there’s no wild pitch.

[Quinlanforthewin]

Lucroy is awful defensively

Lololol at people blaming Bour.

I watched the replay...bour was already rounding third when the ball got away.  There was no one at home base.  I believe it was vlad jr. The shortstop had to run home to cover.  Bour had a good 15 feet head start.  He should have ran.

[Chuck]

One more out. You can do it Canning!

[2112]

Well this inning will show his mettle.  

[daygloman]

That could've certainly been worse.

[UndertheHalo]

[Slegnaac]

Good recovery

[bloodbrother]

Impressive to limit the damage

[John Taylor]

Canning pushed through that inning. Pena and Barria would have allowed 5 runs after that.

[JAHV76]

Nice pitching otta jam by Canning. Now the offense needs to step up.

[Chuck]

Way to go!! 

[UndertheHalo]

It’s gonna be annoying as hell if they send Bard out and hand this game over to the bullpen.  Canning should 100% get a chance to get through 5 or more.

Bour is slow.  That’s why we can blame him.  An average speed runner would have scored, Trout would have still probably been thrown out, but it would still be 1-0.

What are you talking about?  Trout would have been standing on third
