I felt so good about this win I changed my avatar.

What if the first baseman boots 4 singles. That too?

you're reading way too much into this, but i applaud that you actually looked back at a previous post.

I never said Tennessee did anything wrong. I'm just stating a baseball fact. If the other team commits that many errors, they should not win under any circumstances. And Tennessee didn't let them. They capitalized on the mistakes and played solid ball all the way around.

I was a former pitcher and I just recalled the numerous errors made while I was pitching. I think 4 errors probably is enough to win in most games.

two of the errors were throwing errors that I know of. I was only able to listen to audio of the game, so I can't be sure, but 7 out of 10 times throwing errors are the result of the fielder trying to get the runner out in time. If that was the case here, Tennessee gets even more credit for hustling. One went into the freaking stands from the SS. As a former 2B/SS, I can't stand it when that happens. I put a few in the dugout (or at least off the fence in front of the dugout), but looking at pictures of Minute Maid Park, I honestly can't recall letting one get that far away from me. It happens though, but typically from third.
