There was only one out when Johnson hit that triple. Even if Puig plays it perfectly he scores later in the inning. Let's not forget all the plays Puig DOES make that stops a runner on first from trying to stretch a single or throws out runners with his elite arm. The amazing plays he makes far outweighs the bad.
And if you want to play the manager is an idiot game you could say Mattingly bailed out the braves by putting in Belisario in the first place.
