Guardians' Juan Brito: Misplay leads to runs

Brito started at second base and went 1-for-3 with a walk, a double and a run scored in Saturday's 5-3 loss to the Blue Jays.

Brito doubled and scored in the third inning and walked as part of a ninth-inning rally that fell short. In between, he misplayed a grounder that led to Toronto scoring three runs in the sixth inning, although the play was not ruled an error. Brito has been charged with three errors and has minus-1 Outs Above Average since being called up to the majors April 7, but he appears to have some runway with Gabriel Arias (hamstring) on the 10-day injured list and is working on his defense with an infield coach, per Tim Stebbins of MLB.com. Daniel Schneemann and Angel Martinez are also options to handle the keystone, but manager Stephen Vogt values Schneemann's versatility and likes Martinez more in the outfield.
