The Associated Press began last night's game story (which was posted by NBC Sports Boston) with this sentence:
Mookie Betts homered on the first pitch of the bottom of the 10th inning to lift the Boston Red Sox to a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.
How hard is it to report the correct information?
It's apparently much harder than I thought.
What actually happened was:
Mookie Betts homered on the second pitch of the bottom of the 10th inning to lift the Boston Red Sox to a 4-3 win over the Minnesota Twins on Friday night.
