Tigers at Royals 9/2 Gamethread

[Pablo]

Duffy on the mound. Need a sweeeeeeeep of these rock city fuckstains.

[lewdog]

Let's go Royals!

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

OP sux. Need to post lineups dingbat.

[Dartgod]

Damn, they are fouling off a lot of pitches. Duffy pitched well, but 26 pitches. Eeesh...

[Dartgod]

So a bigger strike zone for Sanchez. Nice.

Fuck you ump.

[Pablo]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

Thought that was gone off the bat.

[Jerok]

Yeah he smashed that, oh well.

[Pablo]

Motherfucker.

Upton with the solo shot.

1-0 Tigers

[Jerok]

Oh good lord. Sanchez has a ERA over 5, we have to get to him

[Al Bundy]

Hopefully the offense shutting itself down the other night doesn't effect tonights performance.

[lewdog]

This game fucking sucks.

[Al Bundy]

I'd say Duffy's magical run is over.

[Pablo]

Well shit. This isn't such a nice start

[Munson]

We got the bad Duffy tonight.

[Pablo]

fucking fuck fuck fuck fuck goddamnit

[Mr. Laz]

When we need him the most, Duffy is falling apart.

[suzzer99]

Those two mirror brutal losses may have killed us.

[Dartgod]

Bad Duffy is back.

[Al Bundy]

Yeah, this one might be over. Duffy's run is definitely over.

[Al Bundy]

Those two mirror brutal losses may have killed us.

Yeah, the offense taking itself out of the game was disastrous.

[Archie F. Swin]

well, his offspeed stuff is working

[mr. tegu]

So once again everyone else is winning that we need to lose. This series could end our season.

[Ron Swanson]

The Royals July offense is back.

[Ron Swanson]

This guy is throwing 1st pitch meatballs to every batter.

[Archie F. Swin]

ALL THAT SPEED on the bases

[Dartgod]

That meatball should have been in the fountains and Alex fouled it off.

[Al Bundy]

Royals back alive. Let's get this bitch.

[lewdog]

game on losers!!!!

[Pablo]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAHH

[Dartgod]

Alex redeems himself.

Keep the line moving Esky.

[Ron Swanson]

Atta boy Gordo, we needed that in a bad way.

[Jerok]

I said "Don't let me down Royals"

And they didn't! How many baseball fans can say that?

[Buzz]

Yes! We got this.

[Dartgod]

Esky bunting with two outs. :facepalm:

[Mr. Laz]

Esky just isn't that smart.

[Dartgod]

Way to rally. Now Duffy needs to settle down now and have a shut down inning.

[lewdog]

Shit is making me weepy.

God damn.

[Ron Swanson]

safe

[Dartgod]

ROFL at Sanchez.

HOT POTATO!!

[Al Bundy]

Make this clown pay.

[suzzer99]

I saw on gameday - in play, no outs(s) and was like awesome - tied. Perfect microcosm of these last 3 games that somehow Paulo reaches first and Dyson still doesn't score. So much frustration.

Nice at bat Cuthbert! Dammit!

Hos weak grounder to second coming. Guaranteed. Or he'll hit a deep fly ball just to piss me off.

[Ron Swanson]

Damn it Cuthbert, that sucked

[Buzz]

Shit is making me weepy.

God damn.


Stop playing with yourself.

[Mr. Laz]

can't even get it out of the infield

[Dartgod]

Bailed out by Cheslor.

[Al Bundy]

Well. maybe Hosmer can pick up Cutty.

[Ron Swanson]

Inability to hit a sac fly has been a killer lately.

[Dartgod]

Wasted opportunity...again.

This team can be so fucking frustrating.

[Al Bundy]

Ohh well.

[suzzer99]

FUCKINWETIWHERWKEHRQIO#URY@OIQ#RUYO

Why do I watch this shit.

[suzzer99]

I feel like I can make things happen with my mind. It's just like the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man in Ghostbusters. If I stop and think what is the most frustrating thing that could possibly happen? Boom it happens.

New prediction is we strand like 10 more runners and lose 4-3.

[Dartgod]

Damn, those were some ugly ass uniforms the Chisox wore back then.

[eDave]

Circus

[GloryDayz]

Wow!

Dude, come on.

Man.

[lewdog]

Kinsler always kills us.

I expect nothing less here.

:facepalm:

[Al Bundy]

I don't think Duffy would have gotten there even if he took off the moment the ball left the bat.

[Dartgod]

I don't think Duffy would have gotten there even if he took off the moment the ball left the bat.

I think you're right.

Nice job Moylen.

[lewdog]

Oh fuck yes!

We need this game!

[Dartgod]

Bats have AIDS again.

[Al Bundy]

Yikes... murdered that mistake.

[KChiefs1]

Bats have AIDS again.



All season.

Bats have AIDS again.

They really need Cain in the lineup.

[Dartgod]

They really need Cain in the lineup.

I didn't hear, is his wrist still bothering him?

[Ron Swanson]

Nice AB Orlando, let's get some runs this inning.

[Ron Swanson]

I didn't hear, is his wrist still bothering him?

Yeah, think so.

[KChiefs1]

I feel like this is a must win game.

Who knows with this team. They could get swept this weekend then win 15 out of 16.

[Ron Swanson]

Yes!

Lets tie this bitch up. The Tigers bullpen is crap.

We have blown so many scoring opportunities the last few days. Now would be a good time to correct that.

[siberian khatru]

If we don't at least tie this ...

[siberian khatru]

Swinging at fastballs way out of he zone

[Ron Swanson]

Hit a fucking sac fly for christ sakes

[Ron Swanson]

not one pitch in the zone, damn it

[siberian khatru]

Jesus Christ

[Dartgod]

He didn't throw a single strike to Kendrys. Just awful.

[penbrook]

Nasty pitch

[mr. tegu]

This looks very familiar.

[KChiefs1]

This looks very familiar.



Yeah I've seen this whole thing before over & over this season.

[KChiefs1]

Need a mistake pitch for Salvy.

[mr. tegu]

Greene still hasn't thrown a strike this inning.

[lewdog]

Salvy swinging at "bad balls." It's his style, Rex will tell you.

[Ron Swanson]

Way to swing at ball 4

[KChiefs1]

Pathetic


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[lewdog]

He's a bad ball hitter.

[bsroyals54]

Risp suffering hardcore

[mr. tegu]

This is a good way to lose three in a row.

[petegz28]

Making a tradition of stranding RISP with 0 outs

[Dartgod]

Yep, we're gonna fuck this up. Unbelievable.

[GloryDayz]

Do this!

[petegz28]

Time for Gordon to look at strike 3

[gblowfish]

Salvy has been tanking the last week. Think the season has worn him down.

[mr. tegu]

I still don't think he has thrown a strike.

[siberian khatru]

Salvy didn't get one fucking strike. Not one.

[bsroyals54]

Not going to get the run home, pathetic

[Ron Swanson]

My god this shit is frustrating.

[petegz28]

This all started the other night when we had 2 on and no outs down by 1 against the Yanks...since then we've fucked up the easy scoring chances consistently

[KChiefs1]

This team doesn't really deserve to be in the playoffs.

[petegz28]

What the fucking fuck is this team doing?

[Ron Swanson]

What the fuck are you doing Hosmer?

[Molitoth]

What a fucking abortion of an inning. What a waste.

[GloryDayz]

JC!

[bsroyals54]

Wow. Glad I tuned in for 5 minutes lousy as fuck

[Discuss Thrower]

Unfucking believable

[lewdog]

These guys are playing with their heads so far up their ass.

[siberian khatru]

WHAT THW FUCKING FUCK

[Chiefspants]

200 million dollar man.

[gblowfish]

Doesn't matter, Gordon would have struck out on a slider anyway...

[Dartgod]

Oh my, that was fucking horrible. We don't deserve to win this.

[KChiefs1]

I've got better things to do than watch this shit.

[Simply Red]

awful. Just awful. They're done for this season.

[siberian khatru]

GODDAMN MOTHERFUCKING FUCKING CUNT ASS DILDO MONKEY FUCKS

[Jerok]

Runner at 3rd with no outs and we shit the bed

[Dartgod]

Doesn't matter, Gordon would have struck out on a slider anyway...

This is true.

[Discuss Thrower]

So I guess in Baseball if you think you're going to get gunned down after a pitch out on a steal that you just.... give up halfway to second..?

[Great Expectations]

Awful, three shitfest games in a row.

[siberian khatru]

FUUUUUUUUUUUU*******

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK

[petegz28]

WTf didn't he just keep going? And really...WTF wasn't Cutty sent earlier? I know the ball was shallow but you gotta take a chance sometime....

[Al Bundy]

What was all that?? Why is Jersh so terrified of a dead-armed guy that can't throw the ball 100 feet?

[lewdog]

I've got better things to do than watch this shit.

No you don't.

[Discuss Thrower]

Gee gonna gasoline this fire.. Guarantee it.

[mr. tegu]

Season has just a few games left.

[siberian khatru]

What the fuck happened to this team?

[Chiefspants]

Uh...

[petegz28]

Kendrys has done nothing as of late but K when we need the ball just put in play

[bsroyals54]

why in the f****** f*** do we need windows 10? what's wrong with windows 7??????

[Jerok]

Why didn't Cuthbert run on the fly ball to JD? Why didn't Cuthbert run when he saw Hosmer in the run down?

Why is Dillon Gee relieving when he is much better then Volquez right now?

[lewdog]

why in the f****** f*** doing need windows 10? what's wrong with windows 7??????

Don't do it. I have ignored it for 6 months and they finally stopped asking me.

[gblowfish]

Let's see if Alex starts his AB at 0-2 again...

[bsroyals54]

I bet $10,000 the Royals don't take the lead this inning

[thebrad84]

If we drop 2 of 3 to the Tigers, this season is over. We won't recover those losses plus the Yankees losses by sweeping teams. We've struggled all year sweeping teams and nothing right now makes me think that's going to change. You can't lose series at home when you are trying to play catchup in the standings.

[suzzer99]

Why didn't Cuthbert run on the fly ball to JD? Why didn't Cuthbert run when he saw Hosmer in the run down?

Why is Dillon Gee relieving when he is much better then Volquez right now?

Why didn't Dyson run home on Cuthbert's popup? Why didn't Dyson run home on the passed ball vs. the Yankees? Why didn't Mondesi score on Dyson's hit vs. the Yanks? Why didn't Dyson try to score on the Paulo chopper? Fucking tentative base running.

[Ron Swanson]

Why didn't Dyson run home on Cuthbert's popup? Why didn't Dyson run home on the passed ball vs. the Yankees? Why didn't Mondesi score on Dyson's hit vs. the Yanks? Why didn't Dyson try to score on the Paulo chopper? ****ing tentative base running.

Why can't anyone on the team hit a god damn sac fly?

[Great Expectations]

Gordon swinging at ball 4.

[bsroyals54]

Boooooooooooooooooo

Twice

[siberian khatru]

Of course Alex swung at ball 4 before striking out

[suzzer99]

Pitchers that throw 20% strikes are our kryptonite.

[bsroyals54]

Yah a lousy goddamn single. Here comes the out of the zone pitches we love to swing at

[Ron Swanson]

2 hit Whit in da house!

[bsroyals54]

Why throw strikes, seriously throw all balls, we will get ourselves out no problem

[suzzer99]

Well at least we don't have a runner on 3rd.

[petegz28]

fuck you ump

[Dartgod]

In what world was that a strike? FU Ump!

[suzzer99]

I'm so fucking sick of these ball and strike calls lately. That fucking destroys the whole out bat. I swear the umps have it in for us.

[Ron Swanson]

Great, now we hit a sac fly with a runner at 2nd.

[Dartgod]

There's your sac fly.

[bsroyals54]

Not 1 strike coming, here comes the swings and misses

[petegz28]

Great, now we hit a sac fly with a runner at 2nd.

and now for more false hope....

[suzzer99]

Of course now the sac fly.

[suzzer99]

That fucking call on 1-0 changed the ENTIRE at bat. Fuck that ump so hard. Our pitchers have been getting squeezed and our batters have had to deal with a huge expanded strike zone. I swear the umps can sense when a team is running bad and they just pile on.

[siberian khatru]

I know it's asking too much of Orlando, but ...

[suzzer99]

I'm gonna guess Paulo swings for homer his first two strikes when a lousy single wins the game.

[bsroyals54]

In all honesty how has our coaches not told Escobar or Perez to not swing on a 0-2 1-2 2-2 count? It's so obvious they will swing in that position, and they still don't lay off. Is this the Mlb???

[suzzer99]

You sure ump? You fucking sure that was outside? FUCKFACE

[siberian khatru]

THANK YOU JAYSUS

[Ron Swanson]

Boom! Nice job Orlando!

[CaliforniaChief]

I bet $10,000 the Royals don't take the lead this inning

Too late?

[suzzer99]

I like that, he totally wasn't swinging for the fences. Awesome.

[lewdog]

Amazing slide from Dyson there.

[siberian khatru]

Kelvin, get your ass up.

Or is it Wade?

[Ron Swanson]

Wader. Check please.

[CaliforniaChief]

WADE, get your ass up.

FYP

[penbrook]

WADER!!

[mr. tegu]

Orlando almost won the Wednesday game too. He has been hitting it hard.

[suzzer99]

Holy shit Wade?

[bsroyals54]

Watch Davis blow it

[suzzer99]

Why not ease him in a little? Is Kelvin hurt?

[Al Bundy]

The Tigers bullpen can suck it.

[duncan_idaho]

I would like to remind everyone that Paulo Orlando, like Anos Otis, just doesn't deliver in the clutch...

Nop full blown Randy Quaid after the last 2 games

Oh great.

[Jerok]

Wade closes this out and this team is back

[siberian khatru]

Watch Davis blow it

It would be fitting the way this week's gone

[bsroyals54]

Wader, end the season please

[suzzer99]

Cyborg is back from the shop

[lewdog]

Jesus.

Rusty.

[suzzer99]

Good start.

[suzzer99]

I think Ned is terrified of a closer controversy. But man I'd rather see Kelvin here.

[CaliforniaChief]

I bet $10,000 the Royals don't take the lead this inning

Watch Davis blow it

[Jerok]

Okay very nervous now

[Pants]

That was on purpose. Davis just wants a double play.

[RealSNR]

Wader, end the season please

Turn your rep on, please. I have red squares to give you.

[suzzer99]

Poor Sal man. Dude is just a walking contusion.

[Molitoth]

Well fuck

[petegz28]

and now for more false hope....

Well.....there you have it....

[lewdog]

"I goo, I goo.....I goo....You know I goo!"

/Salvy

[KevB]

Wade doesn't have command

[Al Bundy]

Ugghhh, Wade

[Ron Swanson]

Well shit*

[Molitoth]

Nothing is ever easy with this damn team

[siberian khatru]

I'm going to throw up

[Great Expectations]

Crazy ass couple of games

[suzzer99]

Fucking god dammit Esky you gotta make that.

[Molitoth]

Turning this shit off now

[lewdog]

He'd have scored.

I wish this inning was Herrera given it was top of the order.

[Pablo]

Fucking sucks.

[petegz28]

ballgame, folks....

[Al Bundy]

Yep.. Wade looks pretty much done.

[GloryDayz]

Welp.

[PHOG]

Rusty

[siberian khatru]

Yep

[suzzer99]

Why bring Wade back in the highest-leverage situation imaginable? Why not ease him in a little? Fuck we suck so bad.

[RealSNR]

Ned you fucking ass hat.

[Molitoth]

****ing god dammit Esky you gotta make that.

Lol can't get on esky for that

[Chiefspants]

You know, I think I would have considered "easing" Wade back into his closer role. Oh well. #Yosted.

[Ron Swanson]

****ing god dammit Esky you gotta make that.

at least knock it down

[lewdog]

I really don't know why you don't go Herrera here and have Wade work a lower leverage situation to start.

[bsroyals54]

Herrera wouldn't suffice in this situation obviously, put in rusty wade?????

[Discuss Thrower]

Should've rolled with Herrera

[Canofbier]

Wade :(

[mr. tegu]

See everyone next year.

[RealSNR]

Jesus fucking Christ we're going to lose the 3rd fucking game in a row after having the lead late in the game.

One year ago the Royals were incapable of playing this kind of baseball. Now it's the norm.

Just fucking fuck me.

[suzzer99]

Fucking Kelvin was better than Wade all year. There is no reason to do this Ned. Maybe he's hurt and we don't know it.

[Chiefspants]

Yep.. Wade looks pretty much done.

You really aren't a baseball fan, are you?

[PHOG]

See everyone next year.

Ima not giving up, we still have the advantage ...

[Ron Swanson]

This has been one painful week. Thank god football is back.

[Dartgod]

Wake the rally mantis. We have work to do.

[Chiefspants]

****ing Kelvin was better than Wade all year. There is no reason to do this Ned. Maybe he's hurt and we don't know it.

Or he has a natural rust from taking a month off and could have been put in low leverage spots until he was back to 100%

Ned did this exact thing after Wade came back against the Angels last season (one of our worst losses of 2015).

[siberian khatru]

One more rally in us?

[bsroyals54]

This has been one painful week. Thank god football is back.

Chiefs?????!!!!! How are they different, besides no recent world championships

[mr. tegu]

I bet $10,000 the Royals don't take the lead this inning
Bet again please.

[tk13]

Well that inning sucked. Let's see if they have anything left in the tank.

[siberian khatru]

Of course, if we had been able to score a man from third with zero out ...

[suzzer99]

Just a bullshit spot to put Wade in unless Kelvin was hurt or under the weather or something.

[suzzer99]

Let's get the bases loaded with no outs just for maximum frustration potential.

[mr. tegu]

Losing is one thing, but these (soon to be three) losses in a row are really embarrassing and inexcusable.

[suzzer99]

Awesome first two pitches Hos - spit on a fastball in your wheelhouse and swing at slop.

[suzzer99]

Hos just cannot lay off that crap.

[Ron Swanson]

Hey Hosmer quit swinging at shit pitches.

[siberian khatru]

My God we swing at shit

[Ron Swanson]

That was one of the worst AB's I have ever seen.

[lewdog]

Fantastic looking at bat.

[suzzer99]

Hos - pro tip: when you find yourself leaning 4 feet over the plate - might be a bad pitch to swing at.

[Molitoth]

50 cent could have just struck out hosmer. You shitbag.

[suzzer99]

If we literally just went up there taking every pitch we'd do better.

[Ron Swanson]

that was a bullshit call ump
