The Royals do best when they tax the pitch count and get into the bullpen. I don't know why the organization's philosophy isn't more geared towards doing it.

Bad break

WOW! Ump just shrunk the zone on Shields

Where was that blue? Jesus...

2 pitches in a row that Fister has been getting like clockwork were suddenly less than strikes

Hud loves intensity and weed

Sit your ass down.

change up down should get hunter.

Nice inning for Shields

SHIELDS SMOKIN'

Shields looks good so far. Not great, but good.

Sho nuf. Two fastballs up as setup pitches and strike him out with the exact same pitch he got him on in the first.

Nice call Salvy.

Eh he has been great. That was a fluky home run by a excellent baseball player of Miguel.

It has been hammered in this thread, but not enough: this ump's zone is not only huge, but inconsistent.
