More Quotes from Frank Robinson:
I think it's a lack of concentration and preparation. I don't mean before-the-game stuff, I mean in-game. I don't think we are doing that ... I don't think our minds are in the game. I haven't seen us make errors on difficult plays. We are making errors on routine plays.Frank Robinson

Frank Robinson

He had brain cramps. He was a spectator. It didn't hurt us tonight, but it will hurt you another time you do it. The Mets are struggling and they didn't take advantage of things.
