- Keep up the winning ways! My first Royals' thread!

[lewdog]

Yes Red!!!


I should be here for the start. Not sure after that.

[Simply Red]

Yes Red!!!


I should be here for the start. Not sure after that.

I saw a hat today that had a mantis as the K in the KC Royals. It was for sale on ebay (edit Facebook rather) - I was going to throw that pic up - but I can't find it now!!:cuss:

[CaliforniaChief]

I have my doubts about this game being played in its entirety. Pretty good line of weather west of KC right now.

[Simply Red]

haha - no it was a mantis that actually formed the K w/ its legs.

Way to step forward and start tonight's game thread. You da man, SR!

[Jerok]

Super nice all day, bad weather in the evening, so let's play the game in the evening. Couldn't they have started the game an hour earlier? Ah well. Maybe they'll cancel the game after a 10 run 1st inning from the Twins.

[Simply Red]

Thanks - that's nice of you to say.

Are you really this fucking stupid?

[lewdog]

Eddie is going to own this lineup tonight.

[lewdog]

Red, are you even here anymore?

Or banging chicks tonight instead?

[tk13]

Escobar just killed the third baseman.

[Why Not?]

Is it wrong of me to feel sorry for the Twins? Asking for a friend

[tk13]

That hurt. Lucky Plouffe didn't break his cheek or jaw there.

[lewdog]

Is it wrong of me to feel sorry for the Twins? Asking for a friend

My best friend is a Twins and Vikings fan.

We make fun of him all the time. And by we, I mean him and I.

[Munson]

Hahaaa! Two free runs so far. Keep 'em coming!!!

[tk13]

My best friend is a Twins and Vikings fan.

We make fun of him all the time. And by we, I mean him and I.

Their misery is probably underrated. The Twins in 87 and 91 save them from being considered in Cleveland's class. They've had one devastating football disaster after another though.

[tk13]

This guy literally cannot find the zone.

[big nasty kcnut]

Annnnd we're walking we're walking!

[Spott]

Just keep walking 'em.

[lewdog]

Yea, the Vikings might be the most disappointing franchise in all of football. So much heartbreak.

Lol. Feel bad for Berrios. Hope turns it around. In remaining starts vs Indians and Tigers

[tk13]

That DP might actually be a good thing. T-Storm warning just issued for Johnson County. Get out there and get to pitching. We need to plow through 2.5 innings within the next hour.

[siberian khatru]

Zo, Zo, Zo ...

[lewdog]

I just texted my buddy about feeling bad for the Twins.

He said, "Don't, their ownership and front office deserves this."

[Simply Red]

Red, are you even here anymore?

Or banging chicks tonight instead?

I walked to the store. Yes I'm here! :)

[lewdog]

I walked to the store. Yes I'm here! :)

What'd you buy?

Asking for a friend.

[Why Not?]

We gonna get through 4.5 gang?

[displacedinMN]

popping around tonight and found this.

Feel sorry. No. Some of it they did to themselves. Mauer is overpaid. But his new lake home sure is nice. Bad GM. No GM. trading a lot away.

Molitor underestimates the knowledge of some people.

[Simply Red]

What'd you buy?

Asking for a friend.

Kombucha - Synergy

[duncan_idaho]

Can't imagine the reaction if a Royals pitcher walked in two runs. Pete would lose his mind.

The Twins were awfully smug about their success in the aughts (or at least that was the word inside baseball at the time).

Don't feel badly for them. And they do still have a lot of young talent that could turn it around.

I'm not a big believer in Berrios, though. He's a less talented Ventura, IMO.

This mother fucker homer literally every game against us.

[tk13]

You gotta be kidding. Dozier is murdering us.

[Al Bundy]

Dozier needs a fastball in the ribs, he is far too comfortable at the plate.

[tk13]

Volquez works slow. It's not helping us. We need to get up there and start hacking, no joke. According to the radar the rain looks to be near 435 in KS.

Yeah I don't think this one is going to be official gang

[displacedinMN]

Look at the advantage. Last week, Twins had a 5-0 lead going into a rain delay.
The next afternoon, Houston scored 15 on them to finish the game. then scored another 10 at night.

[lewdog]

Montana boy who is a Chiefs fan behind home plate!

Rep it dawg!!!

[tk13]

Yeah I don't think this one is going to be official gang

It's moving 35 mph, so it's not screaming. Looking at the radar, we might have 30-45 minutes. But once it starts there's a lot of rain behind it. It'll be a long delay.

Yeah. I would love to see a bunch of quick outs just to be safe

[Simply Red]

:clap:

[siberian khatru]

Quick top of the 4th

[Why Not?]

Ok boys. Do your Normal hacking

[tk13]

Good work Volquez. Let's go offense! Three pitch inning.

[lewdog]

All bat like ESKY!!!

[Why Not?]

Not really a fan of 7-8 pitch AB's here. Fucking no control Berrios is gonna fuck us

[tk13]

That looks about right.

Start hitting!!!!!!!!

Alright Mondesi, let's get a DP here.

God damned it - stop getting hits!

[Why Not?]

Bummer. Oh well just have to get em again in the make up game.

[lewdog]

Alright Mondesi, let's get a DP here.

[tk13]

Looks like the rain is near the state line now. This is taking too long.

[Simply Red]

God hates Missouri.

[Why Not?]

Of course. The one time we want a quick one it's gonna be a 30 min inning. Any chance they resume this game tonight?

[siberian khatru]

That's enough runs. Make outs

[tk13]

If Molitor really wanted to screw us he'd make a pitching change here.

[Why Not?]

Ok we gotta go 1-2-3 here

he seems nice - hell of a stick in his day!

If Molitor really wanted to screw us he'd make a pitching change here.

I was thinking the same thing.

If he was smart, he'd have done it.

[Dunit35]

At what point does it become a full game? I'm at the game. It rained for a couple minutes but stopped for now.

[Simply Red]

I will bring us through.

[Why Not?]

At what point does it become a full game? I'm at the game. It rained for a couple minutes but stopped for now.

3 more outs. As long as Twins don't score 4 or more

[Simply Red]

after these three outs.

[Simply Red]

ugh.

[Why Not?]

F you Eddie!

[lewdog]

Dive DYSON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[tk13]

We're going to cut this one close.

[Dunit35]

Cool. Thanks. Kind of a bummer, only come to two games a year.

[Simply Red]

this sucks. He's getting eager.

[Why Not?]

Fuck it. Shitty Eddie will prob choke this game away anyhow so let it rain.

[lewdog]

Fuck this shitty fucking shit!

[Why Not?]

And while I'm at it, F you as well Lewdog. My fantasy team does really well against anyone else but I can't do shit against you!

[siberian khatru]

Volquez is shit

[lewdog]

And while I'm at it, F you as well Lewdog. My fantasy team does really well against anyone else but I can't do shit against you!

I need this fucking week bad!

This league has been crazy tight this year. 7 teams can still make the playoffs!

[TomBarndtsTwin]

Eddies gonna f**k us over here. All he had to do was get 3 quick outs and this game was official.

[tk13]

Now let's not give up a home run here.

[Why Not?]

Eddies gonna f**k us over here. All he had to do was get 3 quick outs and this game was official.

Yep. He sucks

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

What's the score ?

[Why Not?]

Literally have 5-10 pitches left in this game

[PunkinDrublic]

Cocksucking Cleveland pulls out a late win.:cuss:

[tk13]

We are just about out of time. It's almost to the stadium.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Whats the score ? How many outs ?

[Why Not?]

And that'll about do it. Nice job Fuckie. Had an easy win if you could get the bottom of the order out.

[Munson]

Damn you, Eddie.

[KCUnited]

Fuck you Eddie

[Why Not?]

Whats the score ? How many outs ?

Doesn't matter. This is a no game.

[Simply Red]

sorry guys. I was 1-2 in NFL games - but never had did a KC Royals thread, I didn't know my mojo.

[eDave]

Whatever.

[tk13]

Well that's that. Might as well stall now.

[lewdog]

Welp.

Play this one later.

Queers.

[petegz28]

Way to go Volquez....sheesh no lead is safe with this guy

[TomBarndtsTwin]

F**K YOU EDDIE, you worthless sack of crap!

[CaliforniaChief]

Crazy thought, but knowing the weather is doing what it is and you needed a quick 5th, why not put in Herrera and treat it like the 9th?

[suzzer99]

Fucking Cleveland man. Enjoy choking in the first round.

[siberian khatru]

Fuck you, Volquez. FUCK YOU.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Crazy thought, but knowing the weather is doing what it is and you needed a quick 5th, why not put in Herrera and treat it like the 9th?

Would have been the right thing to do.

[Titty Meat]

I'm at the game wasn't raining that hard but there was lightning.

[big nasty kcnut]

Bad news we're tied good news it won't count as a game. Better news the team get some extra rest for tomorrow!

[siberian khatru]

Just can't piss away opportunities like that.

[C3HIEF3S]

That was as sure of a W as it gets. The pressure probably got to Volquez in that situation.

[tk13]

Yeah that just sucks all the way around. I'm guessing Eddie was probably rushing and it hurt him, not hard to see the lightning coming. You just have to get three outs there. Cost us a win. And not only that, now we'll have to play a doubleheader later on.

[TomBarndtsTwin]

Bad news we're tied good news it won't count as a game. Better news the team get some extra rest for tomorrow!

We need wins, not rest. All Volquez had to do to get us a W was get 3 outs. He couldn't do it.

F**kstick. Completely worthless this year.

[Great Expectations]

Why didn't Ned bring in Herrera?

[jimidollar]

Blown opportunity for now. Just need a bigger lead next time.

[Titty Meat]

Coming down hard now. Do we get some refund on tickets or what?

[Titty Meat]

I'm in the Royals Hall of FAME right now if anyone wants to come fight me

[tk13]

Why didn't Ned bring in Herrera?

He probably should have, but I don't think many managers would have there. Just too weird of a move.

[ChiTown]

I'm in the Royals Hall of FAME right now if anyone wants to come fight me

I'd beat your ass into the ground. How big a big are ya?

[Great Expectations]

It should be normal; with that radar it was s no doubter.

[siberian khatru]

He probably should have, but I don't think many managers would have there. Just too weird of a move.

That's why Ned will never win a championship.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

On the bright side we could still win all the rest of our games and win it all.

[Dunit35]

Coming down hard now. Do we get some refund on tickets or what?

I better. I'm in front of the diamond club, keeping my children dry.

[cabletech94]

I'm in the Royals Hall of FAME right now if anyone wants to come fight me

i'll be there tomorrow night. seats are right in front of the hall. i'll throw down with ya........

[Dartgod]

Are we sure this will be a rain out? Looks to me like it will pass in an hour or two

[siberian khatru]

Lezak: The back edge of the rain may not get to the @Royals until 12:05 AM. We will update you on @41ActionNews at 10 PM

[Dartgod]

I stand corrected then

[suzzer99]

We could be 7 games back after tonight w/o Cleveland's late game heroics the last two games. DAMMIT

Good night guys.

[CaliforniaChief]

The bottom line is, that while I think it would have been fun for Ned to go to KH for the 5th inning close, you're up 3 with weather coming in and the bottom 3 hitters of the worst team in your division coming up. Oh yeah, and you're the starting pitcher of the game we won the WORLD SERIES in last year.

You've got to have that killer instinct and freaking lock that down, pronto.

That's the difference between a title contender and an also-ran. I hope I'm wrong.

It's just kinda who we are this year. Little things seem to derail the train pretty quickly

[TomBarndtsTwin]

Yeah, Eddie managed to kill all the momentum the Royals had in this series in a matter of about 15 minutes.

Thanks, Eddie.

You were great last year, but you've been absolute garbage this year. Hopefully the Royals aren't dumb enough to make a QO after this season.

[BigCatDaddy]

Thats not happening

[Titty Meat]

I'd beat your ass into the ground. How big a big are ya?

Sounds like a line I'd use when goin hoggin at the bar ROFL

[CaliforniaChief]

They'll just let Volquez walk, in all likelihood. Escobar, too.

[Titty Meat]

I better. I'm in front of the diamond club, keeping my children dry.

Sooooo we get to go to the double header or nah?

[BigCatDaddy]

They'll just let Volquez walk, in all likelihood. Escobar, too.

Escobar isnt going anywhere with a 6.5 mil price tag.

[Dunit35]

Sooooo we get to go to the double header or nah?

Doubtful. It's a four hour drive for us and we'd both have to get off work.

Volquez has been shit for a while now.

[tk13]

Well if they haven't called it yet we might actually play this thing tonight. Back end of the rain is about to Lawrence. Even then we'll be doing good to start at 12:30 AM.

[Simply Red]

Anyone have a radio handy in KC area? haha

[displacedinMN]

Well if they haven't called it yet we might actually play this thing tonight. Back end of the rain is about to Lawrence. Even then we'll be doing good to start at 12:30 AM.

Didn't we just say in another thread

"Nothing good happens after midnight?"

I wasnt quite sure why they were trying to get hits in the 4th and walks up 3. Just swing at every pitch, or bunt. Make it quick to get to the 5th. I was rooting for double plays lol

[tk13]

Wonder if they'll just restart as long as it's light rain.

Tarp comin off

[tk13]

I didn't watch the whole thing but Joel Goldberg did a great hour and a half rain delay Periscope to pass the time. Started with Rex and Bert Blyleven acting like goofballs and ended with Denny and Ryan.

[C3HIEF3S]

This is a pleasant surprise. Now they need to get out of this shit inning.

[C3HIEF3S]

Drunk turds distracting their own pitcher.

[Great Expectations]

Strahm struggling with the strike zone...

[Great Expectations]

Nice

[Ron Swanson]

Strahm is the man.

[C3HIEF3S]

Strahm struggling with the strike zone...

Impressive by him to focus and regain his command.



He probably pitched in front of larger crowds in high school, though. ROFL

[tk13]

Wonder if they'll run him out there for the 6th. Going to have to do a lot of work to bridge the gap to the 9th inning.

[C3HIEF3S]

The 6 fans in the crowd will not be seeing fireworks this morning.

Might as well. He did a fantastic job after walking Mauer.

[Simply Red]

those fans are hilarious.

[threebag]

Damn late night for baseball. Go ROYALS!!!!

[lewdog]

I'm still up.

But not sure why I wanna watch this.

[C3HIEF3S]

Kid's got talent.

[CaliforniaChief]

If the Royals had not given up those runs in the 5th I bet they would have called it.

[Ron Swanson]

If the Royals had not given up those runs in the 5th I bet they would have called it.

for sure, thanks Eddie

[Simply Red]

Liquored up fans.

[Ron Swanson]

Damn it Dyson, that sucked.

[C3HIEF3S]

Giving an out away with a runner already in scoring position is stupid.

[Simply Red]

he said gay day.

[tk13]

And there go the lights.

[cosmo20002]

JFC...

[Coach]

Power outage.

[Coach]

Well, I guess that what happens when you don't pay the electric bill timely.

[cosmo20002]

Fucking Volquez...
It's gonna really suck if our little win streak ends on a bullshit night like this.

[CaliforniaChief]

They'd better win this. If not, it will be miserable.

[CaliforniaChief]

Fucking Volquez...
It's gonna really suck if our little win streak ends on a bullshit night like this.

Beat me to it.

[Coach]

Plus, you know Ned most likely will trot out the B squad later tonight....

[C3HIEF3S]

Nothing will compare to the 2013 game in St. Louis. Waited until 330 am to play 5 minutes of baseball LMAO.

[Simply Red]

the drunks need to stop yelling during the wind up - good grief!

[Coach]

Nothing will compare to the 2013 game in St. Louis. Waited until 330 am to play 5 minutes of baseball LMAO.

That was a fun game. Cardinals were stalling as hard a they can, while the Royals were helping the grounds crew to get the field in playable condition.

[Why Not?]

I can't imagine Joe Mauer strikes out on 3 straight pitches very often

[Ron Swanson]

some really bad pitching this inning, throw a freaking strike

[Coach]

And the bullpen avoids a major disaster....

[Why Not?]

That's huge by Flynn. Based on circumstances this is a must win game. You cannot give up 3-4 run leads at home while trying to climb back into a miracle playoff run

[tk13]

Going to guess it'll be Soria, then Herrera, then we better have scored a run by then or we're in trouble.

[Ron Swanson]

Going to guess it'll be Soria, then Herrera, then we better have scored a run by then or we're in trouble.

It's fine, Butera is available.

SEVENTH INNING STRETCH

[TribalElder]

Soria is an AIDS bomb on the mound

[C3HIEF3S]

Going to guess it'll be Soria, then Herrera, then we better have scored a run by then or we're in trouble.

Could be some late night Wang for the Twins tonight.

[Coach]

Need runs....

[tk13]

Time for Gordon to put one in the water this inning.

[Ron Swanson]

How did that not get out?

[eDave]

Time for Gordon to put one in the water this inning.

So close

[tk13]

You gotta be kidding.

[Coach]

Ugh, just by an inch....

[tk13]

Well instead of in the water, Gordon can just hit a liner into the OF.

[cabletech94]

okay, so is this when we win this thing? and sorry, no tv where i'm at....... watching on the web. am i in 1998?

[Coach]

Soft grounder to the 2nd baseman.... oy.

[baitism]

Fucking Burns. Bad read.

[tk13]

Can't believe how far back the 3B is playing.

[cosmo20002]

JFC...what fucking garbage

[Coach]

Waste of an inning...

[eDave]

Lame ass shit

[Ron Swanson]

Can't believe how far back the 3B is playing.

No crap, he bunts 75% of the time and doesn't bunt there? SMH

[Simply Red]

welp - that's all I can watch - sleep well - i'm off to bed.

[cosmo20002]

Losing this in extra innings is going to be extra painful

[eDave]

welp - that's all I can watch - sleep well - i'm off to bed.

Sweet dreams.

[cosmo20002]

No crap, he bunts 75% of the time and doesn't bunt there? SMH

Unfuckingbelievable

[tk13]

Well we're probably down to Wang, and Wang. Young pitched last night so he's probably not available. Gee definitely isn't available. Kennedy probably went home for the night.

[thabear04]

Let's end with a HR come on.

[cosmo20002]

4.2 innings of no hits and 7 Ks from the bullpen since Eddie spread his AIDS on the 5th inning.

[cosmo20002]

Stealing 2nd seems like a good idea.

[cosmo20002]

Stealing 2nd seems like a good idea.

yep

[tk13]

Let's see if he goes here. Only catch is the field is sloppy and wet. Not the best condition to run.

[Coach]

Come on, a lousy single ends this shit.

[Coach]

All right, bring Morales up then.

[Coach]

Fuck.

[thabear04]

Fuck!!!

[cosmo20002]

Losing this in extra innings is going to be extra painful

:(

Hate to say it, but the Royals seem determined to lose this game.

[Coach]

Throw one on the damn ground already.

[Al Bundy]

C'mon Royals.

[tk13]

Well the other two games just went final. Padres hit a walkoff homer to beat Arizona in the 10th. Rockies just walked off on Aroldis Chapman in the 11th.

[cosmo20002]

Orlando pinch run?

[tk13]

Gordon has had such good ABs lately. Really seeing it well.

[Coach]

End this shit.

Now.

[cosmo20002]

Mondesi, yuck

[thabear04]

[Coach]

[cabletech94]

yep

[Coach]

Raul's defense is good, but he got a looooooong way to go on his bat.

[baitism]

Yeah, he was hitting .220 in AAA.

[Coach]

STOP SWINGING AT THE CHANGE-UPS!!!!

[cosmo20002]

this isn't happening

[Coach]

MF'er....

[thabear04]

Ugh!!

[thabear04]

Damn twins last base hit was 5 hrs ago.

[petegz28]

Now watch, after all the chances we fucked off, they'll score the first chance they get

[thabear04]

Not any more.

[Coach]

To the bottom of the 11th, still tied....

[Al Bundy]

C'mon Royals.

[Ron Swanson]

Gotta win it here, no way Wang goes another scoreless inning.

[tk13]

Twins about out of pitchers too. I think their closer is the only guy left after Chargois. They still have that lefty Dean, but he pitched like 3 innings last night.

[Dartgod]

I'm here now guys. We got this.

[Coach]

Okay, let's end this right now, dammit.

[Dartgod]

This is it. I can feel it

[Dartgod]

Why in the fuck is Hosmer bunting?

[thabear04]

Come on Hosmer.

[Ron Swanson]

wtf, swing the bat Hosmer

[tk13]

Well that's a new one.

[Coach]

Why in the fuck is Hosmer bunting?

To prevent a double play situation.

[Coach]

Well, can't bunt now with 2 strikes......

Or can you?
