****Official Royals Vs. The Jim Johnsons Gamethread 7/22****
 

Hopefully we don't get to see an elite closer tonight.

Wade Davis no hitter thru 6 calling it now.

Jim Johnson can eat a jumbo size bag of dicks

through six pitches you mean?

:mad: you caught on

In for one run!

there goes the perfect game

No hitter still in tact.

Jesus Moose

Great start Wade

ballgame

Hah what a shit storm and exactly what we need so we can sell, sell, sell.

Wade Davis, ladies and gentlemen

Wade Davis and Moustakas. Are there two more unlikeable players in baseball?

Moose and Davis should be sent to AAA right after this half inning

JFC

Keep imploding, Royals. Might convince Dayton to sell.

Lmao phys was talking up how few errors the royals have made this month then moose wastes no time with a run producing error

I'm not going to say this game is over, but these aren't the last runs Wade K Davies will be giving up.

Shields for Myers basically.

Davis is a waste of oxygen

Moose will turn it on any game now!

Yost looking like a fool! LOL!

This team is an abortion

Feldman with a 5.79ERA.

Royals will grind out one rub.

When can we expect the Royal baby to be ready to contribute?

Too bad they're shooting blanks.

Scott Feldman-Cy Young award winner

Well, played gentlemen.

Best autocorrect ever.

So while the first inning was disheartening, if Davis can pull his shit together and quit hanging balls we may have a ballgame. The Royals are making good contact on Feldman..

Little leaguers hit harder than the Royals. What a shit team.

Sad but true.

Why wasn't Wade Davis an all star?

Ice pick please

Davies might hit 100 pitches in the 4th

I see evil Wade Davis is on the bump

Kyle Davies looks sharp

no other options for starters in the minors?



sloppy in the field ... looks like we don't want to be playing

Ha ha, he almost ****ed up backing the play.

It's pretty shocking to see a starting pitcher with a near 6.00 ERA struggle.

Wade's arm must be fatigued from throwing BP at the home run derby.

Wow! Inept!

He's tripple play away from getting out of this inning.

Lowered ERA to 5.81 with that K.

Is Duffy close yet to coming back?

4 outs. 50 pitches.

Trade Davis for some Pringles right now.

His trade value is through the roof.

A O CAIN!

Almost a Jim Johnson-like inning.

Cain is really impressing lately.

ho---leee---shit what a catch

Cain!!

that catch saved 3+ runs

LoCain!

Davis nuts up

Cain just saved Davies worthless bacon.

that was a 1/2" from not being caught

Wow. One of the best catches I've seen. I was there the night Jim Edmonds made the diving over his shoulder catch on David Howard in the 90s. That was probably the best ever.

And Rex goes and ruins it by calling Cain "one of the best center fielders in baseball".

Jones stares down Cain.

I liked Jones.

If he's saying defensively, he probably is.

Ran to the grocery store and missed the catch. Just saw the replay. :eek: Holy shit

That was a beautiful catch. Just gorgeous.

Looked like he was smiling to me.

Cheap hit

Oh good.

Wade pitches much better with runners on.

annnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnd.....here we go..

Ned, you awake?

Davies has been atrocious, and what's amazing is that he's been lucky as shit, and still ****ing terrible.

Royals: Come to Play

Well, at this rate we are going to be lucky enough not see one of the top 5 closers tonight.

Whew!!

Wade Davis is just terrible.

That's unexpected. I didn't expect him to necessarily be a stud or even a GOOD starter... but I figured they could get solid No. 4/No. 5 level contributions out of him, since he had done that twice already, at a younger age.

Guy might be WORSE than Davies or Hochevar were as starters.

He had no shot at the runner at home. Wow.

:facepalm:

Ned, theres still a chance to salvage this game

Selfish decision by Gordon, but I think it's made out of desperation because of Davies' crap.

If that throw is 2 feet lower, Wieters is toast, we're all laughing at him for trying to score on Gordon, and it's probably on SportsCenter.

No problem with Alex taking a shot there.

So how many games in a row is that now that Davies didn't make it 5 innings?

He actually had made it 2 straight starts with 5 IP or more before tonight's debacle and had made it 5 IP or more in 12/13 starts.

Damn

Well that was just perfect.
