Kinda odd that its a night game even though they have to fly home tonight.

I'll update the OP with the usual bells and whistles when I get home.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

I'll be there! Paint this mother fucker blue

[lewdog]

I'll be there! Paint this mother ****er blue

I've been impressed with the Royals turnout. The seats by the Royals dugout were mostly blue both nights I went. Definitely pretty vocal too with Moose chants frequently, which is perfect because Dbacks fans were probably booing at the same time.

[BlackHelicopters]

In for the sweep

Some Chiefs fans are currently teaching SungWoo how to play flip cup

Prolly developed a following from surprise?

[cmh6476]

Woo tang clan ain't nothing to fock with

[cmh6476]

Anyone else planning to switch from chiefs to royals at first pitch?

[lewdog]

Prolly developed a following from surprise?

No idea because 14 teams make Phoenix their spring training home and I'm not sure of all the teams here, the Royals would make my list if I was looking to root for a team. The couple in front of us the first night were from Topeka and took the train to Flagstaff and drove down for the games. Phoenix seems to have a large percentage of people from KC who aren't afraid to travel here or winter here.

[TLO]

Anyone else planning to switch from chiefs to royals at first pitch?

My roomates and I set up two TV's. :D

[cmh6476]

Am I getting ahead of myself?

Sun Sept 7 Chiefs/ Titans and Royals/ Yankees both at noon

Sun Sept 14 Chiefs/ Broncos at 3, Royals/ Red Sox at 3

Sun Sept 21 Chiefs/ Dolphins at 3:30 and Royals/ Tigers at 1:10

[C3HIEF3S]

I'll watch the first half of the Chiefs maybe, but the Royals have my undivided attention right now.

[Why Not?]

Anyone else planning to switch from chiefs to royals at first pitch?

Chiefs radio. Royals tv.

[Great Expectations]

Anyone else planning to switch from chiefs to royals at first pitch?

Yes, for the reg season when they play at the same time I'll probably listen to the royals and watch the chiefs.

[C3HIEF3S]

Toronto is losing 2-0 to Baltimore in the 4th.

[C3HIEF3S]

2-1. O's still up.

[C3HIEF3S]

Why I am updating this score is that if Toronto loses and we win we are in the second WC spot, long way to go, but still.

[stonedstooge]

Why I am updating this score is that if Toronto loses and we win we are in the second WC spot, long way to go, but still.

And the Tigers losing again. Can creep to 2.5 with a win tonight

[Great Expectations]

[Nzoner]

Sun Sept 21 Chiefs/ Dolphins at 3:30 and Royals/ Tigers at 1:10

Too bad the O's don't have a hof closer anymore.

[Why Not?]

Eh, generous scoring there

Hard hit and tough play there. Not good they're hitting him hard already.

[bsroyals54]

Big yard.

[KCCHIEFS27]

haha sounds loud there for the royals...go AG!

[Bruiser]

DAMN IT MOOSE

[bsroyals54]

Esky due for a HR as well

[Great Expectations]

If we are going to make an out at least they are quick outs. Need to keep the pitch count low so we can pound him the second and maybe third time through. .

[C3HIEF3S]

Esky due for a HR as well

Hud agrees

[Bruiser]

DAMN IT ESCOBAR

[bsroyals54]

[Dartgod]

Sit down, n00b!

[C3HIEF3S]

Solid play Moose

[PHOG]

Moose chewing his cud...:shake:

[bsroyals54]

OK, supper is over!

Yep, it does have that feel!

Come on Esky!

LaRussa looks like he could play lead in " ABout Schmitd 2"

[alnorth]

Watching pitchers try to hit is gripping, exciting stuff

[KCCHIEFS27]

Watching pitchers try to hit is gripping, exciting stuff

more exciting than the second half of a preseason game....i mean, an entire preseason game.

[KCUnited]

Have you heard that Aoki barely felt the bases as he was trotting after his slam?

[ROYC75]

Dammit Esky.......

[Don Corlemahomes]

Dammit Esky.......

Still. Solid ab and driving in much needed run is enough to negate that.

[ROYC75]

Come on Gut, we need another out!

[stonedstooge]

Easy inning for Guthrie

[ROYC75]

Yea, we get to bat again!

[ROYC75]

Awesome video of Aoki hitting the ball off the end of the bat and cutting the seams.

[Great Expectations]

Good decision by Gibson to pull the pitcher. Yost would've waited.

[alnorth]

Good decision by Gibson to pull the pitcher. Yost would've waited.

He probably would not have pulled him in the AL. This was driven by the need to score runs. The new pitcher they brought in is terrible.

[penbrook]

Oh btw if we win tonight we are in the playoffs as a wild card as of right now

[TLO]

With nobody on and no outs why doesn't Moose push a bunt down the 3rd base line?

Moose says poop on you!

[Why Not?]

On the Dbacks broadcast they showed some Jabroni with a sign that said "Moose still uses training wheels" any idea what that means?

[Great Expectations]

Butler is playing a solid 1B.

Will Esky get the GG this year?

[KCCHIEFS27]

who says billy butler's glove will be a downfall? I think we keep him in there..things are going well

[KCwolf]

The Esky play was SICK .

[stonedstooge]

Butler is playing a solid 1B.

Will Esky get the GG this year?

He should

[ROYC75]

Jeremy is becoming a solid starter.

yup

[C3HIEF3S]

Bring in Holland and end it.

Awesome work Jeremy.

[ROYC75]

I would send Guthrie out for the 9th.

I agree , give the pen a rest for the up coming series if we can!

[C3HIEF3S]

If we get another run maybe let Guthrie go back out there, if not Holland no question.

[C3HIEF3S]

Although that is a good point, going to need the pen against the Giants and A's.

[Coach]

Good job Mouse.

[C3HIEF3S]

Moose bringing it this series.

[lewdog]

Moose just kills it any time he's in Arizona.

Damn it. Slide!

Looks like J guts will go for the complete game

[alnorth]

well, guthrie's obviously pitching the 9th

[Coach]

Okay, this I do not agree with Ned. Guts is done, he done a good job, it's a good idea to PH someone to try to get Escobar in, IMHO.

[C3HIEF3S]

Guts coming back

[C3HIEF3S]

Ouch

[alnorth]

Okay, this I do not agree with Ned. Guts is done, he done a good job, it's a good idea to PH someone to try to get Escobar in, IMHO.

He's at only 100 pitches, looked good lately, is not young, and he's nowhere near done. We've got a 3-run lead.

This is not even remotely controversial.

[Coach]

Haha. Nice akward slide.....

[stonedstooge]

GUTRIE RUMBLING STUMBLING TO THIRD

[C3HIEF3S]

Sliding is not Guthrie's specialty

[TLO]

Jesus Guthrie....

[C3HIEF3S]

He did that shit in St. Louis when I was there.

[Coach]

He's at only 100 pitches, looked good lately, is not young, and he's nowhere near done. We've got a 3-run lead.

This is not even remotely controversial.

Perhaps not, but still, I just do not agree with that anyways, because we're just starting August, and you want your pitchers to at least stay healthy and fresh.

[KevB]

Can we please scream at our pitchers before the game that they better not fuck around on the bases? WTF is he doing?

[Demonpenz]

Almost Paul Georged.

[tmw4h5]

God damnit get him out of the game,Yost.

[Coach]

Looked safe to me.

[stonedstooge]

HAVE HIM STEAL HOME NED

[alnorth]

God damnit get him out of the game,Yost.

Why?

[TLO]

Now that he's ok....

LMAO LMAO LMAO

[lewdog]

Why?

You don't have to have a good reason. You just go against whatever Yost does because you are supposed to hate him.

/CP

[ROYC75]

God damnit get him out of the game,Yost.

Nope, give the pen some time off for the upcoming games. Gut is cruising!


BTW, do we even have a pitcher this year with a CG ?

[alnorth]

I think the epic pitcher abuse from Muser and Hillman has scarred some of us for life.

Older pitchers who are around 100 after 8 with a healthy lead are allowed to go for the complete game.

[alnorth]

I think I'd give Guthrie 2 baserunners or 120 pitches, whichever comes first

[ROYC75]

That's 1 out!

When someone posted the Bob Sutton thread the other day, my first thought was why are we talking about that guy we have Andy now.

Butler saw me with my daughter and threw me a ball then signed it. I got two other balls. My four month old daughter was good bait lol. He saw that my wife is a D-backs fan and said to her "You're wearing the wrong gear ma'am." My daughter and I were decked out in our Royals attire of course. I made her do the sweeping motion walking out of the ballpark. She's too cute for people to get mad at me lol.

Shout out to our fans that screamed "home of the CHIEFS!" at the national anthem, that was sweet! And it was awesome hearing the "let's go Royals!" chant in the middle of the 9th inning. D-backs fans didn't like that but it was throughout the ballpark. It was Royals-West. Way to represent guys! GO ROYALS!!
