Peyton Battenfield’s promising debut spoiled by Guardians offense, defense, bullpen

It’s a rare occurrence where a player can both hit a home run and be a scapegoat for a loss in the same game, but Amed Rosario is a rare occurrence in himself.

In the same game that Rosario hit his first home run of the year — and the first of the Guardians in almost a week — he also committed a late error and swung through two pitches with the bases loaded that could have easily got him to first base and let the tying run jog home from third. Instead, the Guardians lost, 4-3, and lost the series to the Yankees.
