[tk13]

Our boy Clint Robinson is playing 1B for the Nationals. He just hit an absolute monster home run in Tampa Bay tonight. Neither broadcast team even saw where it landed.

[lewdog]

Our Mojo is KCnut's appearance. Please be here for us.

[cabletech94]

i'll play in this little thread.

[WhawhaWhat]

Our boy Clint Robinson is playing 1B for the Nationals. He just hit an absolute monster home run in Tampa Bay tonight. Neither broadcast team even saw where it landed.

I'll have to add him to my NL All-Star ballot if I can. Along with Aoki, Francoeur and Myers.

[tk13]

I'll have to add him to my NL All-Star ballot if I can. Along with Aoki, Francoeur and Myers.

He just came around to bat again in the same inning and torched an RBI double. He's got my vote. Neither TV crew has figured out where the HR landed. It's either up in the highest catwalk or he hit it over everything in the stadium and off the back wall of the dome.

[lewdog]

Boys loose in the dugout.

ROFL

[petegz28]

damn...you gotta hold him there, rusty

[Coach]

Yeah, I wouldn't have gone 2nd on that one, especially the way it lucky bounced back to the outfielder.

[ChiefsCountry]

Good Esky, bad Esky all one play. Still it was a hustle play, can't be that upset on that.

[petegz28]

Yeah, I wouldn't have gone 2nd on that one, especially the way it lucky bounced back to the outfielder.

i can see the runner thinking 2 because he doesn't see the bounce..that's mostly on the 1st base coach

[ChiefsCountry]

Moosedoink.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Twins lost today

[petegz28]

BOOM!

[Coach]

That's a no doubter.

[ChiefsCountry]

Caindong!

[tyler360]

In!

[Coach]

i can see the runner thinking 2 because he doesn't see the bounce..that's mostly on the 1st base coach

I agree, but at the same time, the base runner should keep an eye as to where the ball would had bounced when rounding 1st.

[lewdog]

Welcome back Cain. Looking good this series.

[Al Bundy]

Can we play 35 more games in Milwaukee?

[petegz28]

I agree, but at the same time, the base runner should keep an eye as to where the ball would had bounced when rounding 1st.

that's why i said mostly...when esky rounded he should have hit the brakes

[Saul Good]

It's crazy how every HR he gets is an absolute no-doubter.

[Al Bundy]

Cain has always been a streaky guy. Hopefully this is the start of one of those really good streaks.

Welp, 2-0 good guys.

That's great news !:thumb:

[Unsmooth-Moment]

Great first inning. Let's do it 8 more times.

[ChiefsCountry]

Chris Young reminds me of this guy

[petegz28]

I have not Pete, but if it's anything like the Dodger fans in Phoenix, it's a complete shithole.

Baby t and nighties

that's what was wondering...

on tv the place looks like a dump

[C3HIEF3S]

What are you wearing?

Royals hat
Royals shirt that says AL' 14 Champions and khaki shorts

I feel like in watching a game in a mall, indoors, slide in left, rock climbing wall in right.

A good AB by Rios. Hopefully that's a sign to come....

Yell "Al Bundy Sucks!!"

[Saul Good]

Infante sucks.

[Coach]

And Outfante's trek towards the Mendzona line continues.....

[Coach]

Damn.... not the best situation to be in.

[Blankey]

thanks NL baseball

[ChiefsCountry]

Exciting NL baseball.

[Al Bundy]

Still not sure why Young was bunting.... at best it was an out at 3rd, at worst it was a DP.

[petegz28]

not gonna complain a whole lot about the pitcher bunting but you gotta get that down the 1st base line

[Saul Good]

I love watching pitchers bat. It's like watching the WNBA.

[petegz28]

Still not sure why Young was bunting.... at best it was an out at 3rd, at worst it was a DP.

ned yost......

[Saul Good]

not gonna complain a whole lot about the pitcher bunting but you gotta get that down the 1st base line

What? You always want to bunt to the third base side in that situation.

[Coach]

Still not sure why Young was bunting.... at best it was an out at 3rd, at worst it was a DP.

It was a bad bunt. He should had pushed it at the 1st base side instead of the 3rd.

[petegz28]

the problem is the nl has the advantage overall..

in an al park they get the dh..
in the nl prk their pitchers are in much better shape when it comes to hitting

[Saul Good]

Still not sure why Young was bunting.... at best it was an out at 3rd, at worst it was a DP.

The fuck? Of course you bunt there. Every manager in baseball would have had him bunt.

[C3HIEF3S]

Oh shit...nice work. Forgot you went tonight. Enjoy it. What are you drinking?

Was drinking Budweiser because fuck Miller Park

[petegz28]

What? You always want to bunt to the third base side in that situation.

longer throw to 3rd from the 1st base line, no?

[Saul Good]

the problem is the nl has the advantage overall..

in an al park they get the dh..
in the nl prk their pitchers are in much better shape when it comes to hitting

NL teams don't have a DH on the roster.

[lewdog]

Was drinking Budweiser because fuck Miller Park

St. Louis beer instead?!?!?!?

FUCK YOU!!!

[petegz28]

The ****? Of course you bunt there. Every manager in baseball would have had him bunt.

meh..let him use those long arms and sling the bat at the ball..might get a hit

[petegz28]

NL teams don't have a DH on the roster.

big whoop

[Saul Good]

longer throw to 3rd from the 1st base line, no?

The distance of the throw is negligible compared to the difficulty of fielding the ball, turning around, and making a throw 180 degrees in the opposite direction. You bunt towards first for a hit and towards third for a sacrifice with a runner on second.

[Discuss Thrower]

Physc fucking up his StarWars ref

[Saul Good]

big whoop

Take Morales off our team and tell me who our DH would be.

[petegz28]

uh huh...

[Saul Good]

Goal for the USA ladies

[ChiefsCountry]

Take Morales off our team and tell me who our DH would be.

Rios....

[petegz28]

Take Morales off our team and tell me who our DH would be.

someone still better than a pitch batting??

[ChiefsCountry]

Goal for the USA ladies

Did Alex Morgan take her jersey off? :p

[Saul Good]

uh huh...

This is pretty low level baseball strategy here. Wheeling and throwing is very difficult. A ball traveling an extra 20 feet takes about a tenth of a second.

[Saul Good]

someone still better than a pitch batting??

Well yeah, but you aren't comparing him to a pitcher. You're comparing him to a DH.

[Saul Good]

Rios....

Who is in RF?

[petegz28]

This is pretty low level baseball strategy here. Wheeling and throwing is very difficult. A ball traveling an extra 20 feet takes about a tenth of a second.

had that bunt been down the 1st base line, gordon is safe

[ChiefsCountry]

Who is in RF?

Dyson

[petegz28]

Who is in RF?

dyson..dumb ass

[petegz28]

replay please...

[KChiefs1]

I love watching pitchers bat. It's like watching the WNBA.


WNBA is better.

[petegz28]

safe....

[petegz28]

no way you let that stand after the "we had no slo mo" call

[Saul Good]

Dyson

dyson..dumb ass

So we would add Dyson to our lineup if we were a NL team. The AL team would have a DH. Pete thinks that's an advantage for us.

[petegz28]

So we would add Dyson to our lineup if we were a NL team. The AL team would have a DH. Pete thinks that's an advantage for us.

oh ffs..cherry pick much?

[petegz28]

for all we've done, their pitcher is still in good shape count wise

[Saul Good]

oh ffs..cherry pick much?

NL teams playing in AL parks have to insert a utility guy because they don't have a DH on the roster. That's a disadvantage. Their advantage is that they have an extra $10,000,000 or so to spread across their roster instead of paying a DH.

[petegz28]

dakmn, salvy..you is sssssslllllllloooooooooow

[eDave]

Did you just post in the wrong thread Pete?

[petegz28]

Did you just post in the wrong thread Pete?

yes

[Coach]

This is pretty low level baseball strategy here. Wheeling and throwing is very difficult. A ball traveling an extra 20 feet takes about a tenth of a second.

The problem is, the 3rd baseman was already practically halfway through home by the time the ball was put on the ground to him. So was the first baseman, but he was shading towards the pitcher mound instead of at the 1st base line.

You bunt at the 1st baseman because 1st baseman has to account for the pitcher/middle area since the pitcher's motion is going away from the middle of the field between the mound and home plate.

[Coach]

Saved 2 runs there, no doubt about that.

[petegz28]

cain......BITCH!

[ChiefsCountry]

Cain hurt?

[lewdog]

Don't be hurt. UGH....

[petegz28]

Him fine...take a salt tablet

[Deberg_1990]

Chris Young gonna buy Cains Booze, coke and whores for tonight.

[petegz28]

too close to take but looked outside

[petegz28]

infante????

[mr. tegu]

Awesome!

[Blankey]

Wow lol

[kstater]

Chris Young Bitches!

[petegz28]

LMAO Chris Young

[Coach]

Well hell, I'll take it! Way to help yourself, Young.

[Al Bundy]

Alright Chris Young...

[eDave]

5-2 Cleveland.

[tyler360]

Boom!

[Deberg_1990]

Chris Young. MVP!!!

[mr. tegu]

That was a good point by Physioc. Gordon pushing it and going to third and Infante paying attention set up that opportunity. If they don't do that then it's the same situation as Young's last at bat and he has to bunt and we need a two out hit.

[Coach]

I guess we better start voting for Young to be the AL Starting Pitcher, since the ASG is at a NL park, and pitchers may be required to bat.....

[C3HIEF3S]

St. Louis beer instead?!?!?!?

FUCK YOU!!!

Yeah idk

[Saul Good]

Budweiser is Belgian.

[BWillie]

I wonder how many more starts Chris Young has to make to be in the "AL Leaders" in ERA. He just doesn't quite have enough innings yet, but he's getting close.

Right now it looks like 65 IP or so, depending on where you look, qualifies. Chris young at 55 IP now. Only Sonny Gray, Chris Archer and Dallas Keuchel would be ahead of him.

[Saul Good]

Escobar is a joy to watch.

[Saul Good]

46 pitches through 4. Young is cruising.

[petegz28]

5-2 Cleveland.

huh????

[petegz28]

is gameday on mlb.com just broken? haven't gotten it to work for the last 2days

[mr. tegu]

huh????

I think he meant 4-2 Cincinnati.

[eDave]

23-15 Golden State

[srvy]

is gameday on mlb.com just broken? haven't gotten it to work for the last 2days
Was working for me till Young 2 rbi now down.

[petegz28]

working now....

[kstater]

Nice play Omar

[Great Expectations]

Infante is having a great game.

[petegz28]

that was a great play....

[Coach]

Nice play Outfante. Giving credit where it's due. And you didn't have to toss it behind your back!!!

[ROYC75]

Infante is having a great game.

That's you All Star starting 2nd baseman there Kansas City.

[Coach]

Damn, Baltimore has 7 HR's today as a team, and it's only in the 7th inning 17-3 Baltimore over the hapless Phillies.

[TLO]

Score?

[kstater]

Damn, Baltimore has 7 HR's today as a team, and it's only in the 7th inning 17-3 Baltimore over the hapless Phillies.
Frenchy is gonna pitch

[petegz28]

wow...omar?????

[ChiefsCountry]

I thought Omar was going to take one yard.

[kstater]

Omar says fuck the haters

[Coach]

Okay, that was one of the hardest hit I ever seen by Outfante.....

[Coach]

Score?

4-0 Royals. Top 6th

[ChiefsCountry]

Score?

4 Love, good guys.

[Nightfyre]

Vote Omar!

[kstater]

LMAO

Chris Young for MVP

[petegz28]

holy shit!!!

[ChiefsCountry]

5-Love good guys.

[AustinChief]

HAHAHA, Chris Young!!!

[Coach]

3 of the 5 runs, RBI'ed by Chris Young.

[petegz28]

4-0 Royals. Top 6th

make that 5-0

[Al Bundy]

Imagine if they let Young swing away earlier.....

[Misplaced_Chiefs_Fan]

The pitcher has 3 RBIs?

The American League Pitcher has 3 RBIs?

I've about seen it all now.

[kstater]

Green light the steal

[lewdog]

This is fucking awesome.

[big nasty kcnut]

Chris young that was a great signing!

[Three7s]

Chris Young FTW!

[Nightfyre]

Chris Young for DH alternate! He's hitting like .667 and OPS'ing 1.334

[lewdog]

Chris young that was a great signing!

yes it was. Glad to have you here finally! Do you get to watch or listen to the Royals most nights?

[KChiefs1]

3 of the 5 runs, RBI'ed by Chris Young.


Batting .667 too.

[mr. tegu]

Okay, so who here predicted Infante and Young to score the runs and get the RBIs tonight?

[C3HIEF3S]

You're all welcome.

[lewdog]

Okay, so who here predicted Infante and Young to score the runs and get the RBIs tonight?

I did. This is my night!

[Al Bundy]

Frenchy is on the mound for the Phillies..

[TLO]

Thanks gents.

[big nasty kcnut]

I'm watching online thou wish it was royals broadcast.

[chefsos]

Frenchy is on the mound for the Phillies..

...and he set 'em down 1-2-3 with a K. LMAO

[eDave]

I'm watching online thou wish it was royals broadcast.

Wonder why we can never get a Royals broadcast. Weird.

[ChiefsCountry]

Moosedong!

[big nasty kcnut]

Mooooooooooosssssssseeeeeeee!

[PHOG]

Put a dent in that sign I bet. :clap:

[big nasty kcnut]

He smack that ball like it owe it money!

[C3HIEF3S]

All of the people in front of me (Royals fans) just got multiple texts that fhey were on tv. I'll have to watch that footage later.

[duncan_idaho]

Nice game so far. The Infante we've seen tonight is the guy he has been most of his career... Above average glove, solid middle of the field approach at the plate.

Would be nice if he finally started hitting like the healthy player he was before coming to KC.

[mr. tegu]

All of the people in front of me (Royals fans) just got multiple texts that fhey were on tv. I'll have to watch that footage later.

It was kind of a close up of about 10 people. A guy with short grey hair in a white sleeveless Royals jersey with a blue t-shirt under it was giving a Moose call so they were kind of zoomed in on him.

[Great Expectations]

CY is taking way too much time folding up his sweatshirt properly. Ocd?

[tmw4h5]

CY realistically could get a complete game tonight.

[C3HIEF3S]

It was kind of a close up of about 10 people. A guy with short grey hair in a white sleeveless Royals jersey with a blue t-shirt under it was giving a Moose call so they were kind of zoomed in on him.

That guy is sitting 2 rows directly in front of me

[C3HIEF3S]

Just saw the replay. Can barely see me behind a guy with a gray jersey in front of me. That's still awesome LMAO

[Molitoth]

Stretching our starter into the 7th always seems hairy, even when pitching well.

Scares me.

[ChiefsCountry]

Remember when Prison Douche said the Brewers getting Segura was a better trade than us getting Cain and Esky.

[big nasty kcnut]

Chris young need to stay focused.

[duncan_idaho]

Remember when Prison Douche said the Brewers getting Segura was a better trade than us getting Cain and Esky.


Gotta be painful for Brewers fans to watch the guys the Royals got from them for 1.5 seasons of Greinke being worlds better than what they got in return for Greinke.

How much better are the Brewers with Cain, Escobar, and Odorizzi?

[lewdog]

WHO

IS

















































This????

[Coach]

Nice recovery Cy.

[Great Expectations]

Great to see CY maintain control/stuff deeper into the game.

[Saul Good]

Gotta be painful for Brewers fans to watch the guys the Royals got from them for 1.5 seasons of Greinke being worlds better than what they got in return for Greinke.

How much better are the Brewers with Cain, Escobar, and Odorizzi?

Would you trade Davis for Odorizzi?

[mr. tegu]

I have made a scientific discovery as represented by this graph.

[ReynardMuldrake]

I'm loving watching Infante play with a chip on his shoulder.

[Saul Good]

Credit to Infante. He's busting his ass out there.

[lewdog]

I have made a scientific discovery as represented by this graph.

So looks like an inverse relationship between post count and how the Royals are doing? As the posts go up, the Royals play worse.

[penbrook]

Why has Infante been so good

[Why Not?]

Had to work late so DVRed the game and just got caught up. One of the more enjoyable games of the year

[lewdog]

Why has Infante been so good

Because he fucking hates you.

[ChiefsCountry]

We putting it on the Brewcrew.

[Why Not?]

Why has Infante been so good

Gotta earn that all star status.

[AustinChief]

Why has Infante been so good

It's because we have VOTED him to be good. So keep voting Infante and he will keep it up!

[ReynardMuldrake]

Why has Infante been so good

I think he's pissed how everyone's been saying what a shitty player he is since he leads in voting for the ASG.

[AustinChief]

Gotta earn that all star status.

Exactly.

[bsroyals54]

Infante has been good because he has the potential to be good, so what he's in a bad slump. No one was yelling at moose all of last season only because he was never a Tiger.

[Why Not?]

Infante has been good because he has the potential to be good, so what he's in a bad slump. No one was yelling at moose all of last season only because he was never a Tiger.

Dude. We crushed Moose last year. Sucking is sucking. Hope Omar is really turning it around.

[ReynardMuldrake]

Exactly.

I think it's more than that. He's been held up as the example of the player that doesn't deserve to win. He's a pro athlete, he's got to have some pride in his game. I think it's lit a fire under his ass to prove everyone wrong.

[Saul Good]

Infante has been good because he has the potential to be good, so what he's in a bad slump. No one was yelling at moose all of last season only because he was never a Tiger.

Tons of people were yelling at Moose, and he played Gold Glove defense. Infante is awful in the field and at the plate.

[bsroyals54]

Tons of people were yelling at Moose, and he played Gold Glove defense. Infante is awful in the field and at the plate.

Infante was solid in the field, still is. Reliable 2B with 66 RBI's last year, name the last Royal to do that

[Saul Good]

I think it's more than that. He's been held up as the example of the player that doesn't deserve to win. He's a pro athlete, he's got to have some pride in his game. I think it's lit a fire under his ass to prove everyone wrong.

Mostly he's managed a few bloop hits and an infield single the last two games.

[KChiefs1]

Remember when Prison Douche said the Brewers getting Segura was a better trade than us getting Cain and Esky.


That's really strange...she's never wrong.

[ReynardMuldrake]

Mostly he's managed a few bloop hits and an infield single the last two games.

I saw a lot of hustle that last inning. He really wanted that run.

[petegz28]

ffs, here we go again with them finding holes against our pen

[duncan_idaho]

Would you trade Davis for Odorizzi?


Current Odorizzi or who Odorizzi would be if he hadn't learned the split change from Alex Cobb?

If it is the first one, I would take Odorizzi.

If it is the second, give me Wader.

In before fans start freaking out about Herrera giving up two weak singles to start this inning.

[petegz28]

this is fucking deja vu

[lewdog]

Again tonight?

[mr. tegu]

Current Odorizzi or who Odorizzi would be if he hadn't learned the split change from Alex Cobb?

If it is the first one, I would take Odorizzi.

If it is the second, give me Wader.

You are too late.

I'm talking right now. I wouldn't have made the trade then, and I wouldn't make it now, but I can't complain given how good Davis has been.

[Molitoth]

Herrera has been weird lately.

[Why Not?]

Just finding holes. That was a hell of a hit by Lucroy

[petegz28]

the H's in HDH have been kinda..not so good in milly

[lewdog]

All you jackasses come in here posting late and see what happens?!

[KChiefs1]

Just get outs.

[mr. tegu]

All you jackasses come in here posting late and see what happens?!

They clearly didn't see my graph. It's science!

[Why Not?]

Nasty ass pitch

[KevB]

Braun not having fun against Davis or Herrera.

[lewdog]

They clearly didn't see my graph. It's science!

Oh I clearly did. I am fucking pissed at these jokers in here tonight.

[Nightfyre]

Sorry ld

[Saul Good]

Braun looking like a jackass at the plate in late inning situations this series...

[Saul Good]

Lind is going yard.

[lewdog]

Sorry ld

Sorry not sorry.

[PunkinDrublic]

I'm feeling a lot better about this team. Knocking down a Twins team that was falling back to earth was a good thing. Losing to the Cards sucked but they are a damn good team that you have to be on your game to beat at home. The Royals have their struggles but they are doing their job by beating a bad Brewer team while the other teams in the division struggle to stay consistent.

[Nightfyre]

Holland and Herrera picked good games to shit the bed though.

[petegz28]

Holland and Herrera picked good games to shit the bed though.

true though between the two, holland worries me more

[Saul Good]

Nice white trash titties.

[petegz28]

esky fucking cannon!!!

[Why Not?]

Nice white trash titties.

Lol. I had the same thought.

[duncan_idaho]

I'm talking right now. I wouldn't have made the trade then, and I wouldn't make it now, but I can't complain given how good Davis has been.


Current Odorizzi is a pretty legitimate No. 2 starter. Considering the team's weakness in the rotation, that would be a pretty nice piece to have. I'd probably make the trade.

Game note: Nice job by Herrera getting out of that. One hard hit ball, two very well-placed weak grounders. Such is baseball.

[KevB]

Speaks to how our expectations have changed considering we'll be 3.5 games up in the division after this one is over. We've mostly been pissed off as a fanbase over the last 3/4 weeks. It's a long season, just keep grinding and hope we're hot at the right time.

[C3HIEF3S]

Jeremy Jeffress. Ah, the 2012 days.

Nice that he got that double play off his breaking ball --- gives him confidence to go to it from time to time.

[Nightfyre]

true though between the two, holland worries me more

Sure would have been nice to deal Holland in retrospect. We only had two other potential closers and aa tonof depth in the rest of the bullpen

[Great Expectations]

Once upon a time I was really high on Jeffress, but not nearly as high as he was...

[mr. tegu]

Just saw the replay. Can barely see me behind a guy with a gray jersey in front of me. That's still awesome LMAO

They just showed a better view of your area where people are mostly sitting.

[petegz28]

Sure would have been nice to deal Holland in retrospect. We only had two other potential closers and aa tonof depth in the rest of the bullpen

yeah, hopefully it's just dead arm and he will get his velocity back

Current Odorizzi is a pretty legitimate No. 2 starter. Considering the team's weakness in the rotation, that would be a pretty nice piece to have. I'd probably make the trade.

Game note: Nice job by Herrera getting out of that. One hard hit ball, two very well-placed weak grounders. Such is baseball.

Even the hard hit ball was off of a good pitch right on the black...just a really nice inside out swing perfectly executed.

Hasn't be pretty much had a dead arm stretch about once a year throughout his career?

They just showed a better view of your area where people are mostly sitting.

Yep, the people in front of us got more texts. I'll have to watch the archived game when I get back to my buddies place.
