You mean like going 3 of 4 in Minneapolis?o:-)

Because you've followed the Royals for approximately 28 years (at least).

The only thing about the Rockies is that they are at .500 at home this year. Definitely tougher to win there. But we should be able to do it.

On a positive note, just looking at the bench for tonight I give credit to GMDM for strengthening the roster significantly since the beginning of the year.

Compare:

Hayes
Valencia
Dyson
Some other guy

to

Willingham
Ibanez
Colon
Dyson
Kratz

Following the Tigers/Rays game. Scherzer vs. Archer.

3 run bomb for Loney in the 1st!

Hello Tigers bullpen. Fill up those gas cans!

James Loney you beautiful, beautiful man....

Through 1 inning:

Tigers 0
Rays 3

Scherzer threw 25 pitches in the 1st. :D

And is going to get one of his guys hit.

Who could have believed this team would be in first place in the middle of August without Moose or Hosmer performing anywhere close to what was expected? Only possible because of great pitching and it's why pitching arms are always valued over good offensive teams.

Alright Archer, lock it down. Giving the Tigers a loss on a Scherzer start would be epic, especially if we take care of business tonight.

1,2,3 inning for Archer.

He's struck out 4 of the 6 he's faced, and has a 3 run lead.

Let's do this Rays!

Rays threatening again...

Cause it's never, ever been 2014 before.

4-0!

Now 4-0 Rays.

4-0 Rays.
