A Bo Bichette bobble.

And the Rays blow it open.

 

The inning went like this:

 

Kiermaier singles. 

Zunino homers.

Arozarena doubles.

Diaz walks.

 

And then, Manuel Margot hits a ground ball to short, and the Bo Bichette situation comes into play.

He bobbles it, E6. Margot reaches. The bases are loaded.

Two days after Bichette said this:

For a guy who says he wasn’t intimidated going into the playoffs Bo Bichette sure looks intimidated.

A batter later, Hunter Renfroe hits a grand slam.

Rays lead 7-0 in the second inning.

Two errors by Bo Bichette. Rays are all over Hyun Jin Ryu, who's clearly pitching with diminished stuff. Rays up 7-0.

Hyun-Jin Ryu comes out of the game.

The Rays sweep the Wild Card Series.

 

Bo Bichette acknowledges his two-error game was “a tough pill to swallow defensively,” but says he’ll “just use it (as motivation) to get better” over the winter. Charlie Montoyo said Bichette will learn from it, “it happens.” #BlueJays

The Jays are done.

The Rays move on.

And Bichette will spend the offseason staring at the tea leaves for whether he can, too.
