The team that will finish dead last in the AL East, probably the whole AL, just made us look pedestrian in our home park.

O'Neill deserves a -1 WAR today.
It looked like a hit. Happens.

At least we dry humped Helsley in a 1 run loss and got to watch Matz serve up homers on 90+ pitches and Cabrera continue to give up big runs.

Striking out with bases loaded, GIDP, combined with the Little League TOOTBLAN completes the -1 WAR.

Everyone on the roster GIDPs and strikes out. But on the last play, it was in a spot where they pick it up and throw him out at second if he's standing near first.

Being honest about it.

Half way is where he should be. That's base running 101.

He should have gone halfway and kept an eye on the play instead of being around 2nd. His speed gets him back to 1st or to 2nd easily. I also think he should have been on 2nd already on the high pop up that he reached 1st on.

The loss isn't all on O'Neill and I hate scapegoating players but he showed some bad baserunning IQ there at the minimum.
