With that lame leg of his, I think he was just cheating too much there, trying to get a good jump. The bigger baserunning gaff, might have been where Blanco made the bunt up the third base line, with runners on first and second. But Soto on second, got such a poor jump, he was forced out at third. Should have been second and third with just one out there. Kerry Wood walking a batter and hitting another was pretty big too. Was there even a hit in the 9th, when the Pirates got that tying run? I don't think there was.
