Curtain call for making up for your mistakes?

Delgado made one error today. On paper. He hurt the team two other ways. He hits a three run homer in the eighth and the fans want him to come out for a "curtain call". Why? He made up for his miscues. What if it was a solo homer? If I was there I would not have asked for the cc. I would have cheered for the home run, a wonderful thing that he did. For me, he MADE UP for his miscues. Good for him. Great for him. I love it. But he's no hero for doing that. Unfortunately, people don't understand how poor defense hurts your team and just concentrate on offensive numbers and can't understand why their team can't make the playoffs with such a good offensive team.
