The 2022 Guardians are either the most clutch team ever, or the least clutch team ever on any given night. There is no in-between. Unfortunately, they were the latter in the nightcap of their doubleheader against the Tigers as they fell, 7-4.
Amed Rosario was the primary culprit tonight, as he came up to the plate with runners on base in three of his four at-bats, and he hit into an out every time, including two devasting double plays. In terms of win probability added — a measurement of a team’s win probability before and after each at-bat — Rosario was dead last at -0.
