“It was an error of enthusiasm. He was trying to create something that wasn’t there.”
Note to Murph re: that enthusiasm: curb it.

Play the game the right way!
Terry Collins just might take the booby prize for worst manager in Mets history before all is said and done. It is bloody disgusting the way he talks after a game.
