I swear, is there anything some fans DON'T blame Mauer for? Watch it again, if you can. Even if he fields that ball cleanly, it's likely a single. He was deep and far right. Who of all our guys who plays 1st else even comes close to making that play? No one. In any event, it's Gibson's horrible pitching and Mollie's ineptitude that allowed all that to happen, not a play that wasn't even scored an error on a ball that took a bad hop AND that would have likely been a hit if he fielded it cleanly anyway. Mauer is responsible for Global warming, he was on the grassy knoll....
