Hi Henry,
I'm curious! What does it mean? Technically speaking, people don't use the word "mistake" in baseball?

Hi Donay
Yes, it's very cute, charming, and curious for newcomers to the game, to hear sports announcers say things like "Well, he committed an error at a crucial moment. This will likely cost them the game." Etc., etc. If you look at players' statistics, or game stats, they actually "count" the errors. Baseball is a game of innumerable statistics... There's probably a lot on Google about baseball errors.
Remember the movie "A League of their own," about the women's baseball league during the war? Tom Hanks gets desperate at one point and yells at of the gals, "Don't cry! There's no crying in baseball!" Well, there are no mistakes in baseball, just errors!
Cheers

Hi Henry,
Awesome!It's funny how certain details can make a difference in a language. You expect all kinds of peculiarities but they are nothing like you imagine.

Para complementar,
Segundo um livro de gramática que consultei
Um "error" é menos grave que um "mistake"
11X11=120 --> error
Comprar uma Brasília ano 79 por 10 mil reais --> big mistake
Bye
