Frankly, I’m amazed that a play this embarrassing involving the 2026 New York Mets wasn’t committed BY the Mets. Maybe they’re contagious? Either way, this is just absolutely hilarious.
Tonight, with two outs, two strikes, and two runners on in the bottom of the first inning, the Kansas City Royals utterly imploded on a swinging bunt back to the pitcher, Seth Lugo.
The official scoring is “Carson Benge singles on a groundball to pitcher Seth Lugo,” but the THREE throwing errors that followed (Seth Lugo, Jac Caglianone, and Nick Loftin) allowed not one, not two, but THREE runs to score. Again, on a ball that was tapped ever so softly back to the mound. Rarely does the advice to “do less” make much sense. But in this case, man … someone had to put this in their back pocket.

— Barstool Sports (@barstoolsports) July 7, 2026Now, to be fair, that wasn’t a particularly easy play for Lugo to start, and that first throw isn’t AWFUL or even necessarily misguided. Make a play there, and you’re out of the inning. Don’t even try and you’ve got the bases loaded in the first.
It didn’t work out that time, and if Benge just holds onto it, that’s a “Hey, it’s baseball” type of moment. But that’s when Jac Caglianone just … lost his mind for a second? After retrieving the ball, and with Bichette already on third base, Caglianone fired the ball … about 45 feet down the running lane between third and home. I have no clue what happened there. No Royals were standing anywhere close and, like I said, Bichette was already on third.
I’m guessing he just changed his mind halfway through and wound up in between because otherwise what is the explanation?
But even after seeing two of his teammates take a risk and/or make a horrible decision, Royals 3B Nick Loftin said to himself, “You know what? Why not me?” So he picked up the ball and chucked it home (also too late) … and the ball got away AGAIN.
Just about as bad of a singular play as you can imagine.
It’s one thing when a player scores an inside-the-parker because an outfielder dives or the ball takes a funny bounce off the wall. That’s out of their control. But this? Three straight throwing errors? That’s just bad baseball.
Funny, though. And again, I jut can’t believe it wasn’t the Mets who did it!
