More adventures with defense

Dribbler out in front of the plate, Maldy fields it, but doesn’t tag runner from 3B. WTF?

2-1, bases still loaded nobody out

Passed ball plates another run. No Maldy’s inning.

Oh forfucksake

Cross-up?

What a fugly inning.

Wild pitch plates a third run

This is a little league inning.

No, just boxed it

Another walk

Fire the defensive coordinator

A’s have scored three runs on one 6-ft fielder’s choice

My apologies to little leaguers.

Finally. But the A’s get three runs on two singles, two walks, a wild pitch and a passed ball.

3-2 A’s

That’s the dumbest inning I’ve seen out of the Stros in a while.

That was pretty ridiculous. Time to repair the damage.

We’re back to making the rookie look unbeatable.

I like your ginger beer recommendation, HH. Tasty stuff.

A 7 pitch 1-2-3 inning is a fair bit better than that clusterfuck 4th inning.

Radio broadcasters surmised that Maldy apparently didn’t realize he had gloved the ball - was looking for it - by the time he realized he HAD the ball it was too late to make the tag…
