A veteren like that should be embarrased he missed it. You don't play baseball your whole life and not learn how to catch those. .300 batting average or not, its inexcusable.
I think that it was a harder catch than a routine pop-up and yes he should have caught it.

I'm just saying that the Padres and even their fans are going to be more willing to forgive the miss due to what Piazza can do at the plate.
