Baseball teams don’t often win games in which they commit several errors. Defensive miscues, lamented by players and detested by coaches, can shift the outcome of tight games, and are frequently the difference between victory and defeat between otherwise evenly matched teams.
Last Friday night, the Toreros committed seven of them, an uncharacteristic season high. In a matchup against the Saint Mary’s College Gaels, who featured an identical West Coast Conference (WCC) record as the University of San Diego at the time, it appeared that those errors would come back to bite the Toreros as the game went on.
