Help with understanding third sentence In the below I am unsure of my understanding of the third sentence. > > > To tell the truth, our team's ace attacker and setter aren't getting along well. > > > > An attacker and setter not getting along well in volleyball is as bad a situation as a pitcher and a catcher not getting along well in baseball. > > > > At the moment, the attacker is not in their best form, and she is blaming the setter every time she makes a mistake. > > > > It's true though that the setter is a beginner so she doesn't always set the perfect ball. * * * Is the third sentence saying that the attacker isn't playing well (and therefore making mistakes), and then blaming the setter for them?
