The test of a team is not that it never screw up. The test of a team is what it does after it screws up. Rhodes passed that test with flying colors today.
While rather philospohical and thought-provoking, I tend to disagree.
In general, the tendency is that a team that makes more errors than its opposition loses more often than they win. What happens when there's a "what it does after it screws up" after Rhodes commits 4 errors or something in the conference tourney against Millsaps?
Holt and Flanagan are great pitchers, but how great are they against top tier D-III teams when they have to get extra outs?
I agree with Doc, and what I think he is saying is that errors are going to happen. Bad days are going to happen. Good teams rebound quickly and don't dwell on mistakes. That is what Rhodes did by putting an attrocious game behind them and rebounding with a big win.
