Here's how it all went down,
beginning with the fact that the entire thing could have been avoided
had Angels catcher Hank Conger realized home plate umpire Brian Knight called ball four on Miguel Cabrera.
Kinsler was moving from first base on the 3-2 pitch to avoid a
potential double play, but that was all moot once Cabrera walked. Still,
Conger went ahead with the throw and watched it sail into center field
for the first physical error and an unofficial mental error. With Kinsler moving to third,
the second error occurred on a wild throw from center fielder Mike
Trout, who was backing up second base. At this point Kinsler rounded
third and attempted to score, which sets up the third error by pitcher
Hector Santiago. Santiago's throw home eluded Conger, the man who
started the whole mess, allowing Kinsler to score and Cabrera to move up
to second.
