In his defense (pun not intended) the last two errors were tough (the first one has no excuse, though) and they didn't lead to the NL's defeat.
He's had several walk-off and go-ahead hits this year (including a grand slam against the Phillies and recently, a go-ahead double in extra innings against the Dodgers), so to see him come up lame twice in good scoring situations was unlike him. When he came into the game, he seemed like he wasn't comfortable at the plate. It may have been because of his recent ankle sprain, his late entry to the game, or because he just choked.
It doesn't really matter; he technically didn't lose the game. That's Wagner's fault.
