Kansas City Royals @ Atlanta Braves Game Thread (4/16)

[TLO]

Nice hit Cain. Do something here Moose.

[-King-]

This game is going fast...

Was about to post the same thing.

[Shogun]

womp womp womppppppppppppppp

[gblowfish]

Just got under it a bit, but good swing.

[AussieChiefsFan]

Well hit, but not far enough.

[TLO]

Was about to post the same thing.

Red and I posted it at the same time. You should have to.

Whoever it was do you still feel like sticking your finger in Jan the Toyota chicks ass?

[Crush]

Red and I posted it at the same time. You should have to.

I believe that was George and I would PIHB.

[gblowfish]

Only if I can work her mouth like a puppet.....

[DeezNutz]

I'm sure he's going to get rocked now, but...

Damn if Guthrie hasn't been good for the Royals. I was pretty wrong about this player.

[sedated]

"Like a knife through hot butter" lol. Oh, Hud.

[RedDread]

The REAL JGuts!

[Crush]

Another K for Guthrie.

[Shogun]

Holy Shit Jeremy Giambi still has a job?

[AussieChiefsFan]

Damn Guthrie is ripping up right now!

[DeezNutz]

Fuzzycock says that "Markakis walks a lot" like it's a bad thing.

[TLO]

Holy Shit Jeremy Giambi still has a job?

Jason

[Crush]

MOOOOSE

[AussieChiefsFan]

Hell. Yeah.

[gblowfish]

Nice pick by Moose there. And man, he has a cannon.

[Hootie]

Chris Getz slugging % is .050 points higher than Moose AND Hosmer combined.

[-King-]

Ballboy's head is bigger than his torso.

[Shogun]

GUTH!

[RedDread]

There's the Esky we know!

[gblowfish]

Guthrie, one run in six innings against the ATL.
Impressive.

[-King-]

Chris Getz slugging % is .50 points higher than Moose AND Hosmer combined.

BAT HIM THIRD!!!

[AussieChiefsFan]

Beautiful. Let's go offense.

[TLO]

Guthrie could pitch a CG at this pace.

[Crush]

Ballboy's head is bigger than his torso.

He's on the juice.

[DeezNutz]

Nice pick by Moose there. And man, he has a cannon.

Blew upper-90s on the mound as a HS pitcher, which is fucking insane.

[Crush]

Guthrie is the destroyer of worlds.

[gblowfish]

Oh, and BTW,
I'd also like to put my finger in Jenn the Kia Chicks ass too.

[RedDread]

BAT HIM THIRD!!!

Beat me to it.

[alnorth]

so...

If Frenchy and Getz both get on, do we pull Guthrie, or just have him try to bunt them over?

[DeezNutz]

so...

If Frenchy and Getz both get on, do we pull Guthrie, or just have him try to bunt them over?

LMAO.

Let's not start sucking each others' cocks just yet.

[Hootie]

so...

If Frenchy and Getz both get on, do we pull Guthrie, or just have him try to bunt them over?

no way

gotta keep him in

[Archie F. Swin]

So apparently I missed the baseball equivalent of Haleys Comet.

[Shogun]

so...

If Frenchy and Getz both get on, do we pull Guthrie, or just have him try to bunt them over?

Hes been hitting the ball well. Let him get them over IMO. I think he could pitch 8 or CG

[alnorth]

Top 7th

Francoeur grounds out to third
Getz flies out to left
Guthrie hits an infield single to third
Gordon singles to right, Guthrie to second
Escobar grounds out to shortstop

0 runs, 2 hits

Bottom 7th

Uggla lines out to third
Francisco homers to center
Johnson strikes out (swinging)
Simmons singles to right

Blake DeWitt bats for Medlen

DeWitt doubles to center, Simmons thrown out at home 8-9-2

1 run, 2 hits

[AndChiefs]

so...

If Frenchy and Getz both get on, do we pull Guthrie, or just have him try to bunt them over?

I'd bunt. The way he's pitching and his pitch count are I wouldn't pull him.

[RedDread]

no way

gotta keep him in

This.

[Crush]

You got to keep Guthrie in.

[RedDread]

If Getz hits another one I will suck my own dick.

[Shogun]

guthrie for more power?

[DeezNutz]

Just motorboated the air.

[Shogun]

JEREMY IS FEELIN IN

[RedDread]

LOLOLOLOLOL

[-King-]

Guthrie ripping it up!

[Crush]

Alright Guthrie!!!

[DeezNutz]

Moose is like, "Fuck."

[Hootie]

I have a terrible feeling about this game...we need a security run in the 8th.

[gblowfish]

Guthrie gets a hit! Woo!

[gblowfish]

C'mon Alex....
They may pitch around him to get to Esky....

[AussieChiefsFan]

3-0 here we go

[Hootie]

we could really use a bomb here, Alex!!! =)

[RedDread]

Wow, 3-0....

[Shogun]

12 games for alex!

[Crush]

ALEX!!! His hitting streak is now 12.

[AussieChiefsFan]

great hit!

[Archie F. Swin]

I have a terrible feeling about this game...we need a security run in the 8th. youve been a royals fan for a while, yes?

[RedDread]

C'mon Esky. Time to make up for that error!

[Crush]

I have a terrible feeling about this game...we need a security run in the 8th.

Stop listening to that gypsy woman.

[Shogun]

CLUTCHSCOBAR TIME

[Hootie]

youve been a royals fan for a while, yes?

SO long

[gblowfish]

C'mon Esky, be clutch brah....

[KevB]

If Getz hits another one I will suck my own dick.

If you're capable of this, you shouldn't currently be in this thread

[AussieChiefsFan]

C'mon Esky, be clutch brah....^

[cabletech94]

i know this is late, but i'm just making it to my 'puter.

come getz some!!!! and moar power!!!!

[Crush]

MOAR POWER for Esky please.

[KCUnited]

We got the Frenchy Quarter, can we get a Red Light District for Eddie?

[DeezNutz]

I'llSeeDeezNutz.

[AussieChiefsFan]

Come on, dont strike out.

[-King-]

Someone caught that line drive in the chin.

[RedDread]

And on that day, ATL fans learned what cheering was.

[Shogun]

i thought he was safe. but im a homer

[gblowfish]

Damn.
This one will go down to the wire.

[Raiderhater]

If you're capable of this, you shouldn't currently be in this thread

Let alone waiting on Getz to do something.

[AussieChiefsFan]

shiiiiiiiiiiiiiit man...

[sedated]

Escobar having a rough day.

If this goes to the 9th still 2-1, Im gonna be very nervous seeing Holland jog in.

[cabletech94]

sorry guyz. i blew it.......

[DeezNutz]

sorry guyz. i blew it.......

Your own dick? Congrats.

[cabletech94]

Your own dick? Congrats.

deez, if i could do that, i'd be bragging about it ALL THE FRIGGIN' TIME!!!!!!!ROFL

[Hootie]

can someone explain this "MOAR POWER" thing to me? I think it's funny, I just don't get where it's from.

[Crush]

MOOOSE!!!

[Old Dog]

Moose had to either catch it or eat it....I applaud his choice

[Archie F. Swin]

JGuts seems to be the real deal.

[cabletech94]

can someone explain this "MOAR POWER" thing to me? I think it's funny, I just don't get where it's from.

it's basically a CP thing about getz never hitting for power. thus MOAR POWER was created.

after tonight, we may have to retire it.

[Crush]

FUCK

[Shogun]

can someone explain this "MOAR POWER" thing to me? I think it's funny, I just don't get where it's from.

So 2 spring trainings ago Chris Getz said in an interview hes changed his approach to hit for more power. I think I started mocking it at first and then it caught on and now it is just MORE POWER every time.]




damn, tied.

[Old Dog]

oops

[-King-]

:facepalm:

Hud jinxed it.

[RedDread]

Damn....

[gblowfish]

Well, at least it wasn't a cheap one....

[AussieChiefsFan]

Im glad its only 1 run though.

[Al Bundy]

This fucking guy again???

[sedated]

F**k that fat f**k

[gblowfish]

Hey, that war chant is racist....
heh....

[gblowfish]

Getzie will have to muscle up and hit his second to keep up with that guy.

[RedDread]

It hit him, he's fucking out!

[Crush]

SIT THE FUCK DOWN

[Old Dog]

don't see that one every day

[DeezNutz]

Impressive that the umpire calls AND signals that correctly.

[RedDread]

Best feeling as a pitcher, getting to bean some dude AND getting an out.

[Crush]

Just one more out Guthrie.

[AussieChiefsFan]

Come on guys, gotta finish this.

[AussieChiefsFan]

Chiefs fans do the war chant much better than these shmucks.

[Hootie]

we should just pinch hit Billy for Hosmer now and keep him in at 1st

[Shogun]

OH GOD DAMNIT



ohfuck yes!

[Old Dog]

FRENCHY with the hose

[RedDread]

FRENCHY!!!!!!!!!!

[silver5liter]

Hahahaha f yourself

[ChiefsCountry]

Frenchy!
Posted via Mobile Device

[gblowfish]

Frenchy guns him down. Boom.

[Crush]

FRENCHY SAYS YOU ARE OUT MOTHERFUCKER!!!

[AussieChiefsFan]

Great throw and great out!!

[Old Dog]

Gotta score here.....don't want to face Kimbrel

[DeezNutz]

Cain with the fuck up, and Frenchy with the clutch save. Well the fuck done.

[RedDread]

LoCain owes someone a favor...

[Toadkiller]

Damn I hate that Bastard but he threw a strike.

[-King-]

Thats what arm do.

[gblowfish]

Cain should have caught that ball. Good hustle by Frenchy. He's playing hard being back home.

[Jewish Rabbi]

Meat at the plate, motherfuckers.

[DeezNutz]

Thats what arm do.

LMAO.

[Pablo]

Well fuck. I won't talk any more shit on Frenchy tonight.

[Raiderhater]

Thats what arm do.


Nice.

[chefsos]

Wait...are Francisco and Getz playing baseball Horse? Cool. Where does Getz have to hit his next one to get his "O"?

[Saul Good]

How does Cain just fucking drop fly balls? That doesn't happen past coach pitch.

[Shogun]

How does Cain just ****ing drop fly balls? That doesn't happen past coach pitch.

or Delmon young.

[alnorth]

[KChiefs1]

Cain should have caught that ball. Good hustle by Frenchy. He's playing hard being back home.

I wish LoCain was a better fielder.

[Hootie]

is Hosmer down 0-2 yet?

[RedDread]

Being racist against the Irish is still okay right?

[cabletech94]

c'mon hos

[DeezNutz]

Will Hosmer hit more than 10 HRs this year?

[alnorth]

A collection of reactions from Braves fans:

FIRE OUR 3RD BASE COACH WTF WAS THAT

How the fuck do you forget that the only thing Francoeur is good at is throwing baseballs

SNITKER IS A FUCKING MORON. YOU DON'T RUN ON FRENCHY EVER.

[Nightfyre]

Inside heat - Hosmer's big hole.

[AussieChiefsFan]

ugh

[cosmo20002]

Hosmer :facepalm:

[Old Dog]

Hosmer couldn't hit water falling out of a boat right now

[cabletech94]

god damnit hos

[Al Bundy]

Hosmer has zero chance right now.

[Great Expectations]

Any chance Hosmer can learn to hit an inside fastball?

[gblowfish]

When you hear broadcasters say "struggling," that's sanitized speech for "sucking."

Hos is still struggling.

[KCUnited]

Will Hosmer hit more than 10 HRs this year?

Not with that quad nagging him all year.

[chefsos]

Inside heat - Hosmer's big hole.Oh. OK. NTTAWTT.

[KevB]

Hosmer couldn't hit water falling out of a boat right now

I'm very concerned. He's consistently missing or fouling off the pitches he should do something with. Outside of one game, he's sucked again this year.

[Shogun]

That was a hell of a catch

[RedDread]

DAMN

[Old Dog]

well hud, the cleanup hitters ARE doing a lot of damage, it's just to the wrong damn team

[silver5liter]

Damn nice catch

[DeezNutz]

Not with that quad nagging him all year.

We used to send n00bs on a quad hunt.

[gblowfish]

Nice catch. Damn.

[Hootie]

Hosmer and Moose are big fucking disappointments...I'll tell you that right now. Should have traded one of those assholes for Shields instead of Myers.

[Great Expectations]

or Delmon young.

Or Danny Tartabull

[Crush]

CAIN!!!

[DeezNutz]

Moose won't K.

[Old Dog]

Cain crushing

[Crush]

Come on MOOOOSE!!!

[gblowfish]

Time for Moose to do something good. His last AB he hit the ball hard but out.

[Hootie]

Evan Longoria and Ryan Braun came right up and beasted from day 1...

Hosmer was good...and then they figured him out. Moose has sucked ass from day 1. What the fuck. Are can't miss guys miss non fucking stop.

[DeezNutz]

Hosmer and Moose are big ****ing disappointments...I'll tell you that right now. Should have traded one of those assholes for Shields instead of Myers.

(Raises hand). Was advocating for trading Hosmer all off-season.

[Discuss Thrower]

This will end the inning

[Hootie]

Time for Moose to do something good. His last AB he hit the ball hard but out.

with his .220 slugging % I'll just pray he gets HBP so someone else can try

[Old Dog]

Moose won't K.

Moose is just doing well not to hurt himself with the bat

[RedDread]

FUCK MOOSE SWING

[AussieChiefsFan]

Awww. come on Moose

[Discuss Thrower]

Welp

[Shogun]

Moose fucking sucks

[DeezNutz]

Shocking.

[Old Dog]

fucking moose.....stepped on his dress while he swung

[AussieChiefsFan]

Well then......

[Crush]

Shit

[KCUnited]

Bullwinkle leaves 'em stranded.

[Discuss Thrower]

So the whole win now thing was predicated on Moose and Hosmer being major leaguers, right?

[Hootie]

these fuckers need to get out of the heart of our lineup

I swear to fucking god

at this point

give me

Escobar
Cain
Gordon
Butler
Perez
Francouer
Hosmer
Moose
Getz

Fuck.

[gblowfish]

There's a reason Hos and Moose are playing with George Brett's little league team. Neither one of them can hit in the clutch.

Maybe a trip to AA Arkansas for a week would do them both some good. Play Billah at 1B, Tejada at 3B, bring up Lough and let him DH.

[DeezNutz]

So the whole win now thing was predicated on Moose and Hosmer being major leaguers, right?

Yep. If Moose and Hosmer drink deep from the dick sock, the trade for Shields was exponentially dumber than the harshest critic suggested.

[Old Dog]

Well then......

the midgets?

sprinkled fairy dust

on Mooses wand

[Hootie]

So the whole win now thing was predicated on Moose and Hosmer being major leaguers, right?

they are embarrassing

[sedated]

Im just counting Moose as a K every at bat.

[Hootie]

being tied late in the game with Atlanta @ Atlanta is about a 10% chance of success

we won't hit Kimbrel, that's for sure

[Shogun]

HERRERA

[gblowfish]

And Hererra comes in wild....

[DeezNutz]

these ****ers need to get out of the heart of our lineup

I swear to ****ing god

at this point

give me

Escobar
Cain
Gordon
Butler
Perez
Francouer
Hosmer
Moose
Getz

****.

And you continue to post stupid shit.

Esky
Gordon
Butler
Perez
Cain
Hos
Frenchy
Moose
Getz

Gordon and Butler must be up in the first inning. Aside from this, nothing much matters.

[KevB]

So the whole win now thing was predicated on Moose and Hosmer being major leaguers, right?

Yep, and while it's still very early.....cause for great concern. Moose has an OPS in the neighborhood of .560 over his last 300 ABs. That's not a small sample size.

[Old Dog]

There's a reason Hos and Moose are playing with George Brett's little league team..

The last time that commercial came on I told the wife, "I hope one of those little fuckers teach Hosmer and Moustakas how to hit while they're there"

[gblowfish]

Ballgame.
Fuck.

[Shogun]

Well, shit

[Crush]

Well... that's game.

[Discuss Thrower]

SEE YA

[Hootie]

And you continue to post stupid shit.

Esky
Gordon
Butler
Perez
Cain
Hos
Frenchy
Moose
Getz

Gordon and Butler must be up in the first inning. Aside from this, nothing much matters.

Fine. This is fine with me.

but keep Hosmer and Moose the fuck down. They are terrible.

[RedDread]

God damnit.

[AussieChiefsFan]

Godfuckingdamnit

[Old Dog]

well, fuck me.....ANOTHER GOD DAMNED HOME RUN

in comes Kimbrel, we gone

[sedated]

3 f**king HRs?

[TLO]

:shake:

[silver5liter]

"when you have a fast ball as fast as his you can get away with some.... Annnnd that ones gone."

[-King-]

We allow so many fucking home runs.

[Al Bundy]

Well that will do it.

[DJ's left nut]

Well kids - that's how you use a pitcher's velocity against him.

Heyward didn't do shit with that pitch; Herrera did all the work for him.

It'll be interesting to see how the kid responds

EDIT: Uh....so not well, I would say.

[Hootie]

embarrassing.

our great bullpen blows asshole, too

we aren't going to win shit when Chris Getz is the only player on our team that can hit HR's.

[silver5liter]

Jesus game over

[gblowfish]

Ballgame.
Double Fuck.

[Old Dog]

Laugher

[sedated]

4 f**king HRs?

[-King-]

And anohter one.

[Jerm]

Holy shit....Justin Upton...

[AussieChiefsFan]

:facepalm:

[DeezNutz]

Took out the tape measure and, yep, our dicks are smaller.

[cosmo20002]

Ah, crap

[TLO]

Fuck the Braves

[Crush]

JFC

[Old Dog]

3 f**king HRs?

nope 4

[Discuss Thrower]

Well at least the braves are good

[BigMeatballDave]

Game over

[RedDread]

Wellllllll Shit

[Al Bundy]

The Braves are good, the Royals just don't want to score runs... that's what happens.

[gblowfish]

Stick this one in this guy's ear....

[Shogun]

Well, Shit.

[silver5liter]

His command is bad tonight, so of course we leave him out there

[-King-]

Should have been Tim Collins anyway.

[siberian khatru]

Well, this game went to shit in a hurry

[Hootie]

we have 5 fucking HR's on the season...and I believe 4 of them are solo.

[sedated]

I hate Atlanta. Bunch of fairweather assholes.

[silver5liter]

I'm confused as to why guthry didn't pitch the 8th

[Discuss Thrower]

The Braves are good, the Royals cannot score runs... that's what happens.

FYP

[gblowfish]

None of their four homers were cheap, either. That last one was a monster blast.

[cabletech94]

well, i'm off to my crochet (spelling?).

goodnight CP

[Old Dog]

LOL

as many in this game as we have on the god damn season

[DJ's left nut]

In defense of the Royals - the Braves are really really good. Like, arguably the best team in baseball good.

You guys took them tied to the 8th and Herrera got unlucky against Heyward. Then he overthrew like crazy on his change to Upton, it drifted back and got hammered. He'll learn and be better for it next time.

EDIT: Okay...well he'd better learn fast. He's absolutely coming unglued out there right now. That's WAY too many pitches that he's overthrown and elevated this inning. His emotions are kicking the shit out of him at the moment.

[DeezNutz]

Anyway, hyperbole aside: teams aren't winning shit scoring only two runs in a game.

Fuck me. Another one?

[Shogun]

lmao

[cosmo20002]

No fucking way

[Nightfyre]

Not Herrerra's best outing... :facepalm:

[okcchief]

They feast on fastballs. Should have left Herrera and Holland in the pen these games. Oh well!

[Crush]

Get him the fuck out of there.

[sedated]

5 f**king HRs?!?!

[gblowfish]

NOW can we stick one in somebody's ear????

[silver5liter]

Fuck Ned yost this is a joke

[RedDread]

Wow Herrera, what the fuck are you doing?

[AussieChiefsFan]

This is a joke.

[Simply Red]

I hate Atlanta. Bunch of fairweather assholes.

We just kicked your ass.

[siberian khatru]

Unbelievable

[swayy07]

wow...just wow

[Hootie]

The Braves have 1 less HR this game than we have all year.

DEXTER FOWLER HAS 1 MORE HR THAN WE HAVE AS A TEAM ALL YEAR.

8 players in the MLB have at least as many HR's as we have as a team.

[CoMoChief]

jfc

[siberian khatru]

5 HRs in one game ... matching the Royals season total

[TLO]

Drill this fucker.

[Discuss Thrower]

Herrara aside, I doubt the Royals finish higher than 3rd in the Central, let alone get the second wildcard

[AussieChiefsFan]

5 solo home runs?!

[Old Dog]

FUCK YOU HUDLER

You beat power like this by not pitching belt high fastballs across the middle of the God damn plate
