[DJJasonp]

let's do this.

Over under on Donaldson complaints to umps??

[Ron Swanson]

Eddie's getting squeezed.

[Dartgod]

I guess that's one way to avoid giving up home runs. Walk everybody.

[DJJasonp]

HEY....a called strike!

[KChiefs1]

Looks like another Volquez shitty performance.

[DJJasonp]

he hasnt got one borderline call yet.

Gotta call it the same way for both sides.

[petegz28]

1 run on 0 hits...nice

[petegz28]

Esky walks so naturally Dyson and Gordon both swung at the 1st pitch

[Simply Red]

Morales sucks!

[Al Bundy]

What a throw by Gordon.

[Ron Swanson]

That was an amazing throw.

[shakesthecat]

Meat

[Simply Red]

nice assist.

[Al Bundy]

Royals making it pretty easy for Sanchez here.

[KChiefs1]

Gotta scrap a run up somewhere.

Cuban Breakfast drops a freedom bomb!!!

[Nightfyre]

Hud literally calls "get it" before the pitch and Cuban Breakfast goes yard.

[big nasty kcnut]

cuban strong!!!!!!!

[petegz28]

Of course Eddie can't wait to give the lead right back.....

[petegz28]

:facepalm: you hit a guy with 2 on and 0 outs and 2 strikes on the batter....in a 1-1 game.....our rotation finds new ways to fuck themselves

[Al Bundy]

Waited too long to come and get Volquez.

[KChiefs1]

Hold them to one run.

[baitism]

Volquez should have been out after the leadoff walk.

[Al Bundy]

You can't allow them to score even one run. It looks like the Royals are capable of maybe 1 run the rest of the way.

[petegz28]

hoch gonna let them blow it open right here

[Ron Swanson]

Nice work Hochevar

[baitism]

Welp, I'm done.

[petegz28]

There's 1 ....leadoff walk scores...

[Al Bundy]

Well.. that might just do it. This piece of shit staff LOVES and I mean LOVES walking people and giving up big home runs.

[petegz28]

2 and 3 and game is over....

[Al Bundy]

Definitely ball game. Fuck you pussy ass Hoch.

[petegz28]

and right after we tied the game...didn't waste any time at all making sure we won't tie it again.......

[Al Bundy]

I despise our pitching staff. They simply don't know want to prosper. You have a chance to grab a victory and you intentionally 2 guys in the inning.

[petegz28]

hoch gonna let them blow it open right here

and it's almost like I knew it was coming...

[Al Bundy]

and it's almost like I knew it was coming...

You called it.. Hoch was ready to give it all up tonight.

[Jerok]

So the Blue Jays pitcher has had 30 minutes of rest, gonna walk 3 and give up 7 runs c'mon baby

[Al Bundy]

I'd bet the Royals go 1,2,3 here. They are done tonight.

Not a chance. This team would take 30 innings to take 3 walks.

[KChiefs1]

Time to go blow some shit up!

See ya tomorrow.

Which is unfortunate because I love walks. They always seem to beat us, I'd like to see some too.

[Al Bundy]

Where's the GIF of the two hilariously bad calls that saved Wade earlier that inning? LMAO

You're lucky. Not every MLB organization gets that kind of help from the umpires each time they win a World Series.

Dude I know. The Blue Jays going 0-12 with RISP sure helped too. Was this the gif you're looking for?

Who needs a good team to win when you've got Don Denkinger and Jeff Nelson on your side? ROFL

[Al Bundy]

My god Chris Young is going to get BOMBED tomorrow.

[Bob Dole]

Hey guys, how are ya?

Fuck off.

And goodbye.

Actually, I'd predict Chris Young to do reasonably well against them like he usually does. Donaldson can't touch that guy.

Dude. Not this Chris Young. He's turned on the Jeremy Guthrie special this year. Expect another 6-2 win at the minimum.

Dickey is terrible too, should be fun.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Toronto is a team I really hate ! Fuck those bastards !

I hope you're right as I may actually be going tomorrow, but I've seen that guy give the Jays fits for a decade now. Such a weird pitcher. He's been just abysmal this season for sure, but he was still the one guy I kind of didn't want to see on the schedule this week.

Holding current Jays to a .563 OPS (including Donaldson to 1 for 16, Bautista to 3 for 16, and Tulowitzki to 2 for 11). They just don't see him well.

His fastballs have completely lost their movement. Hitters are much quicker to adjust and when they do it's game over.

dont you stupid fucks chop down wood?

Have at it fuckhead.

Yes. Yes he did.

I guess it's only fitting that Blue Jays fans are as big of whiny bitches about called strikes as Donaldson, Bautista and Encarnacion are.


Kudos to you all for carrying that flag to the grave.

[Chiefs Pantalones]

Lol Blue Jays fans are salty. World Champs, no1currr. Blue Jays are trade deadline champs last year though. Congrats on that amazing accomplishment. And round bacon.

Well, they are 0-2 in ALCS's against the Royals. I'd hate us too.

What a throw by Gordon.
