Error from fielder (4)

I believe the answer is:

slip

I believe this is a double definition.

'error' is the first definition.
(slip is a kind of error)

'fielder' is the second definition.

'from' is the link.

(Other definitions for slip that I've seen before include "See 16" , "Lose footing as on banana skin" , "Fall or make a small mistake" , "Lingerie item - fielding position" , "have an accident" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
