The Associated Press reports Pittsburgh Pirates 3B Andy LaRoche was benched Wednesday, April 8, after making his third error of the season Tuesday, April 7. 3B Ramon Vazquez started in place of LaRoche Wednesday. LaRoche has also started the year 0-for-6 at the plate.
Our Instinct: Yeah, that will get you in the dog house faster than anything in baseball. LaRoche had a nice spring at the dish, so hopefully he will get these errors under control quickly.
