In a tense game against the Milwaukee Brewers, Boston Red Sox outfielder Roman Anthony faced heavy criticism after a disastrous throw in the eighth inning. With the score tied at 5-5 and two runners on base, Anthony had an opportunity to throw out Brice Turang at home plate. However, his throw bounced before reaching cut-off man Caleb Durbin, allowing two runs to score and giving the Brewers a 7-5 lead. Fans took to social media to mock Anthony's performance, suggesting he should be moved to first base or designated hitter. In response to the backlash, Anthony acknowledged his mistake, stating, “It’s terrible. It’s bad baseball. It’s on me.” Red Sox manager Alex Cora also criticized the throw and pointed out that ace Garrett Whitlock failed to back up the play, which contributed to the error. This incident highlights ongoing concerns about Anthony's defensive skills following a promising rookie season.
