Bury the lede.

"With the veteran struggling to get through the fifth inning -- having allowed the Blue Jays to load the bases with no outs -- he got Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to hit a groundball to the shortstop that could have been a much-needed double play.

Instead, Guerrero beat out the throw to first by Gleyber Torres. Shortly after the safe call, Stroman was shown on the broadcast yelling into his glove. It looked as if Stroman was upset with Torres being unable to complete the double play.

Stroman would continue to show his frustrations in the dugout after he was pulled from the game."

I don't trust Stroman and I also don't like his attitude. Some of this is based on performance and a lot of it is based on style.

Still, not a game goes by where Gleyber doesn't screw up in the field or on the basepaths.

Turning double plays should be mastered by the time you're in high school.
