****Official Royals Vs Blue Jays Gamethread 4/30****
 

ACE Ventura on the mound.

Don't care that this is early. I'm 3-0 this year. #Letsthrowfirebitches!

Ahhh yea! 3 in a row!

I'll be interested in seeing the intriguing Bautista/Ventura matchup (because I certainly can't expect the Jays to actually win a baseball game right now).

:Royals:

Because Chen's spot will be skipped today, I will get to see Ventura pitch in San Diego instead of Chen. :rockon:

Unless they skip him Saturday too.

I'm all for finishing April with a winning record and within one game of first place in the division.

It's time to send Billay back down to the #6 slot..or even lower.

Let's get on a seriously long winning streak now!

Holy shit - I turned the game off just before the beginning of the 7th. Can't believe I missed it!

Yeah I missed it as well. Had to go to bed.

Lets get three in a row!

in

OK, we won a game two days ago. Since we won yesterday, it's called "two in a row". And if we win again today, it's called a "winning streak"... It has happened before! ‪#‎LetsThrowFire‬‪ #‎BeRoyalKC

Let's just hope we don't shit the bed in May as we did last year after finishing April at four games above .500

We already had our one losing month this year in March, so no worries.

In for the win!

Won't be able to watch past the 3rd inning tonight unfortunately.

Go Royals!

What a stupid nickname. WTF is up with this town and dumb nicknames?

That one is too easy, I was hoping it would go away. Maybe call him Finkle, or Einhorn, or the Pet Detective, but Ace Ventura is way too generic/easy.

Getzy takes exception to this post.

In for three in a row!

Yep. I went to bed thinking it was over and decided what the hell I'll click over the ESPN on the lap top and see how bad it hat gotten and I see 5-4 with runners on 1st and 3rd in the 8th.. "Um honey. I'm going to go check the Royals score real quick on TV and I'll be riiiggghhhttt back to bed".

Should be another great night for baseball.

Yeah right.

Since Ned decided to send him out for the 8th inning and pushed Ventura to 113 pitches, I'll be not surprised if he's shaking his arm more tonight to get it loose. I hope Ned doesn't wear him it to try to save his job like Hilman did with Meche.

Ace will put the Jay's right handers in their place.

Oh JFC, the kid is young. 113 pitches should not be a problem for him, not that I want him doing that every game. But 1 time in his career isn't going to break him.

19 minutes away!!!

About to head into the bathroom to take care of some business. If it's a clean breaker, I know we'll win.

It's not outrageous - you tear muscle fibers throwing that hard repeatedly. Recovery from 90 pitches to 113 is greater. If Ned breaks this kid I will hate him more than I ever have.

Are we 13-12 now?

Edit: never mind

Almost game time fellow RoyalTards

Clean breaker achieved. Win is imminent.

In for the win.

Gotta keep those fastballs down for the most part Ventura

I ate an entire bag of spinach for dinner, all for the sake of the Royals. Expect home runs!

I just shot my load over my girlfriends head. Expect home runs!

This update could end up being more exciting than our offense.

So does Melky get checked more frequently since getting a ban hammer?

Way to watch it float in Dyson

Wheewww

Keep it going offense.

w00t. Leadoff double for Aoki

Aoki dokey!

nice

Got 1 anyway

Very, very nice.

Billy looking like he doesn't want to be there.

Sacrifice bunts in the first inning are reason number 5 of 683 why I cannot stand Ned Yost. I know they scored a run.

nice job Ace. Keep it up champ.

Ventura throwing a lot of pitches again

I'm glad we did it. One run is better than zero which is likely what we would have got if we didn't do it. Get on the board early then hopefully your offense can relax because they already got one in the bank and are playing with a lead.

Melky chewing on steroids.

Shutup Hud

****ing cheater.

**** off Getz.

53 pitches through 3. Nice work getting Batista

I'm here finally. 11 hour day. I'd love to drink but I've got another day like it tomorrow. I'll I need is a Royals win now.

Welcome and let's hope. Ace doing well so far.

We sure are hitting a lot of pop ups tonight. Especially off the fist of the bat

Hey Dawg

Aoki has had the best contact tonight thus far

Come on ump

Sit down

Another good inning for Ventura

Omar has been such a nice pickup this season

Yep, good inning. Only thing he needs to work on is getting a result faster. His pitch count is pretty high for only 4 innings.

DOUBLE DOUBLE RUN w00t

Thought that might get out.

Hosmer still can't hit a rally killer to save his life......good hit though

Way to go Hoz!

Teh Hos

Billy's cold...literally

Can't understand where Hosmer is losing his power in that swing. His swings look like if he hits it solid, it'll go 400 feet

Replay??

He was blocking the plate

Can't block the base if you don't have the ball...correct?

That's a run

Would this be the first time they award a run for blocking the plate? If that's not blocking the plate i don't know what is.

Funny the plate Ump didn't see that.....it's plain as day

Welp, looks like I'm not a fan of this new homeplate bidness either

Cracked bat counts as a broken bat.

WTF?
