Yuli Gurriel, the Kansas City Royals' veteran first baseman, made a costly error during Game 3 of the ALDS against the New York Yankees, dropping a routine throw from Michael Massey. This blunder occurred with the Royals trailing 3-2 in the ninth inning.
Despite Gurriel's solid postseason performance, TBS announcer Bob Costas criticized him harshly, highlighting the error as something even a child could have handled. The Yankees secured the win, putting them ahead 2-1 in the series.
Gurriel, a two-time World Series champion with the Houston Astros, aims to contribute to the Royals' efforts to stay alive in the playoffs as they prepare for Game 4.
