thanks man.

[lewdog]

Let's score a fucking run tonight!!!

[lewdog]

Stop fucking sliding you fucking idiot!

[Munson]

We got robbed. Hosmer was safe.

[ChiTown]

Stop ****ing sliding you ****ing idiot!

Irritating habit

[Great Expectations]

Safe if he doesn't slide.

[blake1771]

will Hoz ever stop that dumb slide into 1st?

[blake1771]

he was out on that 2nd replay. just barely, but still out. likely safe if he runs through it.

[Munson]

That was a sick play by Mondesi!

[Great Expectations]

That was special.

[lewdog]

If you can't find a good bat at 2b, might as well keep that glove out there.

WOW.

[ChiTown]

Mondesi's bat will get there. He just needs more AB's. Kid's D is already GG quality

[Simply Red]

holy shit!

[blake1771]

damn!! Dyson!!! amazeballs

[Jerok]

Omg!!!

[ChiTown]

Holy ****ing shit. That may be the play of the year for the Royals

[Dunit35]

Erect

[C3HIEF3S]

ok Jarrod.

*walks away*

[tk13]

Holy mother puss bucket. Play of the month.

[cabletech94]

dyson with the highlight catch!




i seriously just got chills!

[ChiefsCountry]

Dyson wow.

[RealSNR]

Edinson Volquez:

<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/XG63OtsKC7k" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

[alpha_omega]

Yep. Awesome defensive first.

[BlackOp]

That was one of the best catches I've ever seen.....play of the year.

[Simply Red]

nice

[PHOG]

What a catch!! :clap::clap::clap::clap::clap:

[Al Bundy]

Yikes.. dogshit offense.

[RealSNR]

Pitchers suck at hitting

NL ballwashers: "BUT IT'S TEH STRATEGEEEEZ!!!"

First time through the fucking order?

Ballwashers: "...."

[Jerok]

Looks like they might score a bunch off Volquez, but we might score a bunch off of their defense.

[SAUTO]

damn I'm not home and missed the dyson play.

can't find it anywhere

[Simply Red]

Ok need runs now.

[siberian khatru]

damn I'm not home and missed the dyson play.

can't find it anywhere

MLB.com

[siberian khatru]

Some runs. Score them.

[Simply Red]

By the way - what ever happened to Gore - did they send him to the minors?

[SAUTO]

MLB.com

thanks, pretty fucking impressive

[lewdog]

By the way - what ever happened to Gore - did they send him to the minors?

He can't hit shit with his bat. He'll probably be up with an expanded roster for base running but that's about it.

[ChiefsCountry]

There we go Salvy.

[Al Bundy]

Good shit Sal!!!!

[Simply Red]

Rex is fun! I really like him. I 'the fuck u say?' him a lot - but odd comments and all, he's pretty dang entertaining.

[PHOG]

:clap: :thumb: Moar!

[siberian khatru]

thanks, pretty ****ing impressive

I would've embedded it for you but can't on my iPad.

[Simply Red]

He can't hit shit with his bat. He'll probably be up with an expanded roster for base running but that's about it.

oh ok - I knew he was fast, honestly I didn't / don't know much about him.

[siberian khatru]

Could've used a big hit from Gordo there

[Munson]

Wow, so close.

[ChiefsCountry]

Damn Mondesi and Esky about did it.

[Nightfyre]

This ump's strike zone is bullshit. He is giving Koehler way more inside than he is Volquez. Like 3-4 inches more.

[lewdog]

Mondesi and ESKY play so well together in the middle.

Love watching this.

[Ron Swanson]

damn it Cuthbert, that one hurts

[RealSNR]

JESUS FUCK CUTHBERT

[lewdog]

Get your fucking heads in the game.

Come on!

[Al Bundy]

Well.. there's that. Volquez about to come undone?

[siberian khatru]

Whew

[lewdog]

Suck on that!!!!

[PHOG]

Escaped! :)

[Munson]

Esky power!!!!!

[ChiefsCountry]

Esky!!!!!!!

[Ron Swanson]

Esky bomb!

[Al Bundy]

Eskybomb

[Simply Red]

yeah boyee

[lewdog]

Holy shit,

ESKY?!?!?!

[PHOG]

YYeSSSSS!!!!!

[siberian khatru]

WHOA

[jimidollar]

Alci-dong!

[RealSNR]

VENEZUELAN BREAKFAST

[ChiTown]

That's a giant hit. Well done, Esky!

[Ron Swanson]

wtf is Cuthbert doing tonight?

[Dartgod]

And Cuthbert costs us the lead.

[Al Bundy]

Good job Cuthbert... eat the fucking ball you shithead.

[Al Bundy]

Cuthbert with a TERRIBLE play.

[Munson]

Two shitty throws by Cutty.

[lewdog]

Jesus. Had more time to throw there.

[Dartgod]

Good job Cuthbert... eat the fucking ball you shithead.

Eat it? Why in the fuck would he do that? He had time to make a good throw.

[Dartgod]

What in the fuck is going on out there?

[ChiefsCountry]

WTF is going on in Miami tonight.

[Simply Red]

sloppy

[petegz28]

Cutty got his head in his ass tonight

[ChiTown]

Good job Cuthbert... eat the ****ing ball you shithead.

Are you fucking kidding me? Don't be a retard. He had the play, just didn't make the throw

[Dartgod]

Are you fucking kidding me? Don't be a retard. He had the play, just didn't make the throw

Are you fucking kidding me? Don't be a retard. Al Bundy IS a retard.

[tk13]

Well that entire inning was a circus.

[petegz28]

Cuthbert fucked up a very routine play. There was no need to eat it, whatsoever

[Simply Red]

maybe he meant like he should have to really eat the ball - w/ a fork, etc..

[Great Expectations]

Need to pull Volquez after this. He has been dog shit the third time through the order for a while now.

[RealSNR]

Not sure if Moustakas would have collected that ball on the dive, but I'm damn fucking sure he would have made the throw like a non-jackass.

[Al Bundy]

Eat it? Why in the fuck would he do that? He had time to make a good throw.

No he didn't. He was wobbling to his left. That was a ball he should have eaten. But instead he cost them the lead.... no big deal though.

[Ron Swanson]

No he didn't. He was wobbling to his left. That was a ball he should have eaten. But instead he cost them the lead.... no big deal though.

um no, he had time to make a good throw

[lewdog]

No he didn't. He was wobbling to his left. That was a ball he should have eaten. But instead he cost them the lead.... no big deal though.

Try watching a game objectively for once.

[Al Bundy]

Makes up for it there.. good job.

[siberian khatru]

Bad hitting by Cain

[Simply Red]

come on Hosmer you pussy.

[Al Bundy]

GREAT swing Hosmer...

[Ron Swanson]

shitty AB's by Cain and Hosmer

[Dartgod]

Fuck you Hosmer. That was ball 4 you moron. Even Al Bundy wouldn't have swung at that.

[Al Bundy]

Great job offense. Hosmer with the best at bat of the series.

[ChiTown]

Stranded a lead off double. Nice work:cuss:

[Simply Red]

they keep doing that it's not going to matter if they 'wild card in.'

[siberian khatru]

Way to waste a leadoff double, assholes

[Simply Red]

Koehler is getting tired though, he seems sluggish -

[ChiTown]

Make them fucking pay!!

[Simply Red]

they need to plate some here.

[RealSNR]

If you wanted to watch a game with great routine infielding...


...this is not your game

[lewdog]

Is Marlins guy here?

[Munson]

That'll do, Esky.

[ChiefsCountry]

Esky!!!!

[Ron Swanson]

Have a game Esky!

[Al Bundy]

Esky!

[ChiTown]

Esky is in a groove. Yes!

[Simply Red]

If you wanted to watch a game with great routine infielding...


...this is not your game

haha!

[Simply Red]

Is Marlins guy here?

Nice guy! I HOPE so!

[ChiTown]

Gotta be a bunt here

[tk13]

Escobar is the offense.

[siberian khatru]

That's how it's done

[RealSNR]

Escobeef!

[ChiTown]

Holy hell. This game has had a little of everything

[Simply Red]

Holy hell. This game has had a little of everything

It really has!

[RealSNR]

Yeah, I'd put in Morales if Mondesi doesn't do it here

[Simply Red]

Who in KC carries the best loose meat sandwiches? - while you are all here...

[ChiTown]

KenMo has to do work here. GETRDONE!

[Ron Swanson]

Come on Morales, do your job

[ChiefsCountry]

That will work Cuban Breakfast.

[ChiTown]

Morales CRUSHED that ball. Well done!

[eDave]

Now that is a sac

[Dartgod]

That'll do Kendrys. That'll do.

[siberian khatru]

Good move by Ned to get Ed out before 6

[Ron Swanson]

thank you Kendrys

[ChiTown]

Young pitching the 6th?

[Simply Red]

I thought he got it

[Ron Swanson]

Good move by Ned to get Ed out before 6

Yep, that was a double bonus. Scored a run and got Eddie out.

[Simply Red]

Good move by Ned to get Ed out before 6

I agree

[Great Expectations]

Yeah, I'd put in Morales if Mondesi doesn't do it here

An example of how NL managing is easier than AL.

In our league you don't get to pull Volquez this early in the pitch count.

[tk13]

Texas is leading Cleveland 3-0 after 4.

[Simply Red]

Anyone else have gas?

[RealSNR]

An example of how NL managing is easier than AL.

In our league you don't get to pull Volquez this early in the pitch count.

Then again, in our league you don't have to watch the pitcher fuck the bat like a goddamn shit-chucking ape

[Jerok]

Have you seen Cleavlands schedule? It's pretty tough. We might make up a few games if we keep this up.

[tk13]

You're doing good when you strike Ichiro out. 31 K in 247 AB.

[Great Expectations]

Francour can't hit high heat, can we throw someone that has that pitch?

[Great Expectations]

Have you seen Cleavlands schedule? It's pretty tough. We might make up a few games if we keep this up.

We also might eff up our streak with our rested pen by pitching CY.

[Deberg_1990]

I had forgotten Francour was a stud in 2011!

[gblowfish]

High fastballs...
Can't hit em,
Can't lay off em...

[ChiTown]

Jesus .......

[Dartgod]

Cheap fucking hit.

[GloryDayz]

fuck Young!

[Ron Swanson]

damn it!

[gblowfish]

Well, he hit the shit outta that pitch...

[Great Expectations]

Why not start the inning clean with Strahm?

[lewdog]

Need a K here.

Please.

[tk13]

Couldn't have bunted it any better than that.

[tk13]

Why not start the inning clean with Strahm?

Trying to save him for the 7th inning.

[ChiTown]

Why not start the inning clean with Strahm?

Lefty lefty matchup

[Ron Swanson]

Strahm is the man!

[eDave]

Alright!

[Great Expectations]

Strahm is nails!

[Dartgod]

Strahm is the man!

[siberian khatru]

That's my boy

[lewdog]

That throw had some heat behind it.

WOOF!

[PHOG]

Nice!! :clap:

[Dartgod]

Strahm is the man!

:cuss:

[Jerok]

Honestly, I looked at the pitching match up and our offense and thought we would lose by a lot. Keep it up and take the series Royals!

[Deberg_1990]

Great job CY!!

[ChiTown]

There have been a lot of close plays at first tonight. Lots of speed on both teams

[Great Expectations]

It's strange that with how great our pen has been this month I still don't have faith in anyone but Strahm and Kelvin.

#spoiledbyGMDMsgreatpens

[Jerok]

Duffy vs Price, really? Oh mean, over under on Runs is what, 6 and a half?

[Deberg_1990]

Jim Eisenrich Tourettes always creeped me out.

[Why Not?]

Indians BJ and Orioles all going to lose. Shaping up to be a good night

[ChiTown]

HOLY F! these errors

[Simply Red]

nice

[lewdog]

Not worth it with one out there.

Man.

[Great Expectations]

Nasty

[eDave]

HOLY F! these errors

Get that shit out of our system, with a win to boot.

[lewdog]

I fucking love this kid!

[Great Expectations]

Is Marlins guy here?

Yes, he is wearing a blue pullover and blue visor.

[PHOG]

On to the eighth! :clap:

[eDave]

Tits

[ChiTown]

DAAAAAAAAYUM! Nice, Strahm!

[siberian khatru]

I'm going to have Matt Strahm's children

[ChiTown]

I'm going to have Matt Strahm's children

#buttsecks

[lewdog]

I'm going to have Matt Strahm's children

Not if I fuck him first!

[tk13]

If Wade comes back at full strength, we're going to have a pretty vicious back 3 of the pen again.

[tk13]

Rangers now lead the Indians 8-0.

[Ron Swanson]

damn it Soria, no walks

[eDave]

Rangers now lead the Indians 8-0.

Sure wish we could have won last night.

[siberian khatru]

Man, I go all petegz when a pitcher walks a guy after getting ahead 0-2

[Ron Swanson]

oh crap, here we go

[Dartgod]

SoriAIDS

[PHOG]

Danger! Danger! Soria! :hmmm:

[Meatloaf]

Soria being Soria. Seems like the guy cannot pitch a clean inning.

[Deberg_1990]

Soria will break our scoreless innings streak


Bank on it

[Meatloaf]

To me, it seems that Soria doesn't have much life in his pitches. They just sorta go straight. Not good.

[Ron Swanson]

To me, it seems that Soria doesn't have much life in his pitches. They just sorta go straight. Not good.

yep, looks washed up

[lewdog]

To me, it seems that Soria doesn't have much life in his pitches. They just sorta go straight. Not good.

True, then all of a sudden he gets a nasty curve to his curve ball. But you're right, it's not consistent.

[eDave]

We made it through max Q.

[Mizzou_8541]

Was working late and randomly saw Dyson's catch. Uhhh....holy shit. Full sprint and timed the jump perfectly. Amazing catch.

[ChiTown]

Whew. On to the 9th!

[siberian khatru]

#SoriaStrong

[Simply Red]

Soria is awesome!

[Dartgod]

I wouldn't mind another run or two.

[Spott]

He made it through the inning, but we are playing with fire every time we put him in a close game.

[PHOG]

Wasn't worried for a second. :shake:

[siberian khatru]

Soria being Soria. Seems like the guy cannot pitch a clean inning.

He had 5 consecutive clean outings before Tuesday's appearance. :D

[siberian khatru]

Soria now 9 1/3 scoreless innings since he last gave up a run Aug. 4

[ChiefsCountry]

Ned not letting Soria hit.:evil:

[siberian khatru]

It's been a real up and down year for Jack: Bad April, excellent May, awful July, excellent August

[Meatloaf]

He had 5 consecutive clean outings before Tuesday's appearance. :D

Like I said, guy consistently gives us clean innings. See boys, in sports it's so easy to just be a chip switcher. Avoids a lot of hassles.

[Al Bundy]

lol Orlando.

[Simply Red]

Dyson is due

[eDave]

Ha ha

[ChiTown]

And dats what speed do!!

[Simply Red]

TWSD

[Ron Swanson]

That Mondesi guy is pretty fast

[siberian khatru]

Rough series for Paulo

[Meatloaf]

Wow, that was a nice insurance run!

[ChiefsCountry]

That's what speed do.

[Al Bundy]

Mondesi is fast...

[Why Not?]

This is why this kid has to be in the lineup

[siberian khatru]

Yeah, if Mondesi can just find ways to get on ...

[lewdog]

I still fucking love this kid.

Who cares about his bat at this point!

[HemiEd]

Mondesi is fun to watch

[Chiefspants]

Mondesi taking matters into his own hands.

[eDave]

That fella was safe

[lewdog]

SAFE

[PHOG]

Safe!!

[Why Not?]

This inning is brought to you by speed

[ChiTown]

How many times has Dyson been picked off this year?

[lewdog]

How many times has Dyson been picked off this year?

Enough to really make me hate him. I seriously do not care for Dyson.

[SAUTO]

I still fucking love this kid.

Who cares about his bat at this point!

bwillie hates him

[C3HIEF3S]

Lol Dyson doing what he does best

[lewdog]

bwillie hates him

I'd love for him to tell us who should play 2B then?


I'll keep waiting for his retarded answer.

[Ron Swanson]

Enough to really make me hate him. I seriously do not care for Dyson.

I don't think he's real bright, I like him though.

[SAUTO]

I'd love for him to tell us who should play 2B then?


I'll keep waiting for his retarded answer.

colon iirc which I think is a shitty idea

[PHOG]

How many times has Dyson been picked off this year?

The pitch before that, he broke towards 1st as the pitcher was coming to home.Clearly not reading the pitcher at all.

[lewdog]

colon iirc which I think is a shitty idea

Yes, and it's been done. He brings literally nothing to the table.

Nice call BWillie.

[Spott]

Soria now 9 1/3 scoreless innings since he last gave up a run Aug. 4

You mean since he last gave up 3 runs.

[eDave]

Royals GDT's are picking up steam.

[lewdog]

Royals GDT's are picking up steam.

LETS GO ROYALS!!!


CLAP CLAP>>>>CLAPCLAPCLAP

[siberian khatru]

Whoa, baby

[Simply Red]

Florida has a lot more holes than you guys think, they've been playing above their heads.

[siberian khatru]

You mean since he last gave up 3 runs.

I think you're taking that too literally -- since he was last scored upon

[Why Not?]

Bahahhahaha. Mets fan with a division championship T shirt amongst Royals fans. What a douche

[ChiTown]

HE GONE!!

On to Boston, Bitches!!!

[eDave]

Off the schneid!

Looked and sounded like a home game.

[Dartgod]

Winnar!!!!


Too bad we couldn't get some clutch hits last night.

[siberian khatru]

BANG

Series won, back on schedule

[lewdog]

Eat our fucking Midwest cocks!!!

[GloryDayz]

Woot.........

[eDave]

Eat our ****ing Midwest cocks!!!

LOL. Easy big guy.

[PHOG]

Way to go Kiddos. Nice game, sort of (3 errors), with some spectacular plays also. Keep it going in Boston! :thumb::thumb:

[ChiefsCountry]

Time to win a series in Bawston.

[jimidollar]

Good job, mantises!!

[Chiefspants]

Jesus Kelvin, these men have families.

[lewdog]

LOL. Easy big guy.

Very sorry.

This team has got me fucking jacked! Fun as hell last month.
