At the risk of ticking off several people that I respect highly, I'd like to make the following statement.
If it makes you feel better to blame some poor guy because on one play he went after a foul ball (like that never ever happens), and your team blew it big time, then knock yourselves out. But you're overreacting like toddlers throwing a temper tantrum.
The luckiest man in the world today is the Cubs shortstop, who committed an error that nobody seems to remember...
