It reminded me of the Butera at bat in the playoffs. Clutch

Luckily my wife had the game on in our bedroom so I got to witness the Gordon and whit at bats.

I'm in a lodge at the Grand Canyon. Driving back from a day outing and get back to the lodge as Moose makes the second out(listening to satellite radio, the best invention of mankind)and I tell the kids "okay, out we go games over". Caught yh score on Sportscenter. Had to hightail it to the lodge lobby to get wifi and get the recap here. Don't care. What a win!!!!!!

Even more amazing was Moss, Esky and Gordon reaching base with 2 out.

That is a hell of an accomplishment. No, really.

So after working a 12-hour day I was beat, and went to bed after Soria gave up the fourth run in the 9th.

If you're serious about contending, I don't see how you run out a bottom third of the order that's hitting below .200 in late June.

Thanks for making me look like a genious, guys! ROFL

Back to .500. Now I'm in.

Damn, I love waking up to a Royals win!

I fell asleep when we were down 2-1, and figured we wouldn't do shit the rest of the game. I'm glad I was wrong.

I can only imagine the butthurt coming from Blue Jays fans. LMAO

We got home around 230am this morning from the game last night. I couldn't sleep. I'm still pumped about Whit's clutch walk-off double. So much fun...but now I wish we would have stayed to go to this afternoon's game.

And we snapped another streak, although rather obscure, its the Blue Jays first loss when leading by three runs with two outs in the ninth since 2007. :eek: :p

Yeah Moss for working a walk!

Still can't quite get over last night. That was vintage Royals devil magick folks.

What an awesome comeback win.

What was the Royals win % in the 9th inning?

Less than 1%

The 1-4 of Billy Burns, Mondesi, Starling, and Soler is probably better than the 1-4 Dayton Moore inherited or put on the field in 2007.

If the improvement Bubba Starling has made sticks/holds, they should give Omaha hitting coach Tommy Gregg a medal*. A simple mechanical change for Starling suddenly has him hitting to all fields and made his strikeout rate plummet (a guy with a career 32 percent K rate entering the year, Starling has dropped that to twenty percent since the beginning of May - that's 150 ABs).

*Maybe he needs to spend a few weeks in Alex Gordon's spare room?

I've always wondered why the best hitting coaches don't travel around through the minors? The time a guy really needs a hitting coach is when he's coming up trying to make it, not when he's in the majors.
