It’s not an error that the Red Sox beat the Blue Jays tonight, but that didn’t stop either team from committing a heck of a lot of errors on their own. Six combined errors, including four by Toronto, and they could have had a fifth on Enmanuel Valdez’s go-ahead two-run single, and I’m not saying neither team wanted to win, but this wasn’t anyone’s A-game today in the field.
It’s great that Nick Pivetta was able to settle down and pitch six innings, saving the bullpen for yet another game, but two more home runs given up isn’t the best look on his part.
