Look, Luis Robert Jr. is a star even when he’s having a tough 12 months, and the commerce rumors in regards to the Cuban outfielder throughout the Chicago White Sox’s horrible season can’t assist.
However: you’ve received to indicate some effort.
With a tie sport within the ninth inning and the Cleveland Guardians’ successful run on third, Josh Naylor hit a fly ball to Robert. Now, the ball was positively hit far sufficient for the runner to attain, however like working to first base, it’s important to present that you just’re attempting.
And Robert didn’t even try the throw. Followers weren’t too completely satisfied about that:
Severe query: provided that this can be a tie sport within the backside of the ninth and the run scoring from 3B will finish the sport, what attainable excuse exists for Luis Robert to not come up throwing on this shallow sac fly? Is there any conceivable motive? Injured? pic.twitter.com/xYa7NDsyE7

— Mike (@ChiSoxFanMike) July 3, 2024 Persons are upset at Luis Robert right here for his “effort.” He had 4 RBIs tonight, over 66% of our complete runs.
We’re 24-63. He feels hopeless as a result of the White Sox are hopeless.
