This was about Soto hitting like an 800 lb gorilla, right?
Nope, it was about no one on the forum was posting about it but I believe most of us noticed his lack of production until last night.
Lack of production is a rough way to characterize a dude who posted a .784 OPS before last night while dealing with an injury to his back shoulder. Notably, he was fine before it became an issue.

That was bad.Mistakes happen, but that was a bad one.
It was a mistake. A dumb mistake. I would not characterize it as a bad mistake. When a batter doesn't run out a ball because he assumes it will be an out, and then the fielder misplays it but still gets the out because the batter didn't run, that's a bad mistake. That isn't at all what happened. Soto was certain the ball would be foul, it never entered his mind that it would be fair. That's how I saw it. A dumb mistake. There are alot worse mistakes than that. And I guarantee you it'll never happen again.
Still not as bad as getting caught up between 2nd and 3rd celebrating his hit in the WC game.
