AP Photos Maybe if Eloy Jimenez, Luis Robert and Adam Engel were healthy, none of the admitted mistakes manager Tony La Russa has made in his first 29 games would be viewed as monumental. Maybe Jimenez hits one out of the park against Sonny Gray, and the Sox beat the Reds 1-0 on Wednesday instead of losing 1-0 in 10 innings. Then maybe La Russa wouldn’t have used closer Liam Hendriks needlessly and wouldn’t have been exposed for not knowing a rule. Maybe good speed, no bat outfielder Billy Hamilton wouldn’t have been put in the difficult position to drive in the tying run in the 10th, an assignment La Russa allowed him to undertake. Maybe Leury Garcia, in an inexplicable decision in the view of almost everyone except La Russa, wouldn’t have tried to steal second base and gotten thrown out by Gold Glove catcher Tucker Barnhart, an attempt that led perplexed Sox radio analyst Darrin Jackson to say on the air, “I don’t know what we’re doing out there.”
