***OFFICIAL ROYALS vs. mariners 09/03/2013 Game Thread***
 

Keep the momentum going. Go Royals!

Keep it going! Go Royals!

For the Royals to make the playoffs, they're going to need quite a run here, meaning at minimum winning 6 of 7 on this homestand, which likely means a sweep of Seattle and 2 of 3 from Detroit.

let's go blue!!!! epic run!!!

IN for the WIN BABY!!!!!!

Other games of significance:

White Sox at Yankees (1-0 CWS in 1st)
Orioles at Indians (no score)
Rays at Angels (later)

I'll be here for this.

Need Lewdog mojo

Mucho thanks.

What's our magic number?

in

Need good luck from all. Gotta have the wins, baby.

:doh!: Chris Getz.

69?

Anyone hear the reason why Hosmer is at DH and Billy at 1st?

Getz? Still baffling.

2 slot seems to have killed us all year

in.

Nut crunching time is upon us. No more excuses.

Hope Chen doesn't get hammered like last time

Shit.. The K sure is empty tonight

So when did Cain's legs fall off?

Before we acquired him

Nice quick 1st inning for Bruce

Nice

I'm hard.

You can tell at times with Cain he's athletically clumsy. Wonder if that's what keeps him getting injured. OH MY GGGGOOOOORRRR GGGGOOONNNNEEEEEEEE

1st pitch bomb

When can we change the God awful homerun music???

Gordon!!!!!!

I will never understand why players don't swing at the first pitch more.

BBEEOOTTTIIIIFFFULLLL SWING HOS

Butler going to cost us

The infielders better be extra careful on their throws to first. They are used to being able to just throw the ball in the general vicinity of first base.

DAMN. Chen gets out of it

****ing nice job Bruce

What even happened? I was away for a minute.

As for Getz to Butler... I've seen better plays in beer league

Break it open Clutch

2 hard hit outs. 1 run won't do it tonight boys

Bonifacio in at 2nd, Getz benched or hurt?

Getz pulled in the top of the 3rd?

Just got to the game. So the fatty is actually playing!! LOL! And I've heard he's on a diet too...

I'll keep calling him fat to make sure he keeps dieting!

Yeah Rex, Belly looks ALOT more agile since he lost 15 pounds

Chen.....dealing

they should just put 'Double Play' as the name on Billy's jersey.

smh

The thing that irritates me most about Billy's ground ball double plays is that they are typically very weakly hit. If they were hard hit at least we could chalk it up to bad luck with a guy on first
base instead of a bad swing with a guy on first base.

First time I've seen an ump help a player that went over a rail

w00t. Chen with another

SALVY with the line drive OOUUUTTTAAA HHHHEEERRREEEEEE

Salvy!!!

2-0 KC

hud looking out into the crowd ..


"that lady got those antlers on ..... she's looking for something ... off of moose's bat ... big stroke ... maybe he can go deep."


LMAO

Belly barely got him

I'll bet there isn't a pitcher that an opposing team gets more pissed off at not being able to hit then Chen

yep

just watch the hitters after they miss ... they are always glaring out at chen.

w00t. BELLY KNOCKS IN 1

Belly!

3-0 KC

Clutch!

what inning?

Top of 6

Wow we're 4.5 games back of the wild card? So we would be a game or two back if we went 4-3 instead of 0-7 a couple weeks back?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. 2 run shot

Now it's a game!!!

This is baseball. Teams go on streaks. And yes, losing streaks against bad teams.

That was a ****ing bomb

Kyle Seager is good.

Chen tried to sneak a piece of cheese past a hungry rat.

better get at least one of those runs back here in the bottom half of the inning

Better get someone loosening up Ned

Oops!

Yost loves to bring Herera in after Chen

LMAO

uh oh.

Herrera is just awful.

Tie ball game.

The White Sox predictably let the Yankees take the lead in the 8th.

Feels like this game is slipping away...

24 games left, have to win

Fat ****!

Butler has been a disaster at 1B. I know that was a tough play and all, but that was awful.

Good god butler.
