Darwin Barney

In one of the worst Cubs seasons in history, there have been a few bright spots. One of them is Darwin Barney. He set a record last night for most consecutive games without an error at 2B. (114)

He was given an error for a few minutes last night, but after looking at the replay, the official scorer gave the error to the third baseman instead. I was watching...(I know, but someone's gotta do it. What should I have watched instead? The Republican convention?)...and the scorer did the right thing. That throw was right on the money. The third baseman just missed it.

Full details are here.
