“Unraveling the Crucial Blunder: Rojas and Sosa Reveal the Hidden Tensions Behind Wheeler’s Costly Defeat for the Phillies”
If it was any combination of Brandon Marsh, Max Kepler and Rojas out there, the play likely would have been made. Sale is an extremely difficult matchup for most lefties and Sosa started the season 11-for-20, which is why Thomson gave him the nod.
The mistake came down to a misunderstanding. Sosa pursued Riley’s flyball aggressively but then yelled “you, you, you,” to Rojas, letting him know the ball was his. Rojas seemed to think Sosa was calling him off. It was the center fielder’s ball either way and Rojas was accountable postgame.
