Maybe he lost it in the sun. Maybe he he lost it against a cloud. Maybe he's a crappy outfielder. Whatever the reason, he screwed it up and dropped the ball.
The TBS announcers immediately said that "maybe someone in the Red Sox bullpen yelled 'I got it' and caused him to back off." They repeated that contention several times throughout the game because they were fascinated that the Rays right fielder missed the ball.
So after 5 more innings of baseball and repeating it at least twice each inning that maybe "someone in the Red Sox bullpen called the guy off the ball", they were making it clear that they were convinced someone in the Red Sox bullpen had intentionally called the guy off the ball.
After the game, someone asked him what happened and he said, "I didn't hear anything from their bullpen, "I didn't hear anything but the crowd yelling."
Now the TBS announcers are saying that it must have been a ghost or something that caused the guy to back off.
Screw you Keith Olberman and the rest of the TBS announcers.
The guy screwed up and you tried to blame it on the Red Sox.
Now, instead of being a man and admitting you were wrong, you're gonna hide behind some "It must have been a ghost!" line even after the guy stood in front of the media and said, "I screwed up. I should have made the catch."
Screw you.
Apologize to the Red Sox for accusing them of being bush league like Alex Rodriguez. They have the best record in all of baseball and they worked damned hard to get where they are.
