MINNEAPOLIS -- It's one thing to fix physical mistakes, but manager Joe Maddon finds himself having to correct the occasional mental lapse by shortstop Starlin Castro.
In the first inning Friday, the Twins had the bases loaded and Castro made a fielding error, which led to a run. But he compounded the mistake when he put his head down and held onto the ball, and another run scored. After the game, which the Cubs lost, 7-2, Castro said he was embarrassed by what happened.
"He makes mistakes on occasion, and I know he's played for a couple years, but he's still young," Maddon said Saturday of Castro, 25.
