7-2 GDT Royals Twins

[Al Bundy]

Take 3 out of 4 from them.

[Why Not?]

Big game. Difficult road trip looming and eventually we need to start winning these in division series.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

This should be an ass whoopin!

[Jerok]

Travis Wood is the beacon of hope of this Royals team. Karns isn't coming back and we can't keep trotting out rookie pitchers. We get Duffy back soon, if Wood figures it out to become our 5 guy, he's a veteran lefty pitcher, our pitching rotation suddenly looks good again.

Going to see Gordon in CF again today.

[lewdog]

I'll be here today. That means a win.

Sorry about last night's loss. Had to see the hometown team win and couldn't watch the Royals.

Yep. This game is huge for us. Need to win.

[dlphg9]

Lol ump gave him a freebie

[C3HIEF3S]

Lol ump gave him a freebie

He didn't exactly earn it, but it was the right call, even on 3-0.

[Why Not?]

Good start. I'm guessing Wood has 4-5 innings in him, tops. Would be nice to have a nice lead by then

[tk13]

Whit rocking the socks today.

[baitism]

Does anyone know the sports talk host (610 or 810) that spent an hour on Thursday making fun of Miguel Sano? I bet he feels pretty smart right now.

What were they saying about him?

[baitism]

How did the first place umpire miss that check swing? Fucker.

[baitism]

What were they saying about him?

Basically, how he was a nobody and there was no excuse for him starting over Moose.

[penbrook]

Good throw

[C3HIEF3S]

Soler can't field worth shit, but he's got a cannon. Imagine when he learns the position.

[Al Bundy]

Knew that he was going to get a hit after screwing the Royals on the swinging strike 3.

It was a fun game... we missed out on the free tshirt. Went to Angels Trumpet Ale House beforehand, which sounds like a biker bar to me, but is a Hipster-American bar close to downtown with like 37 beers on tap.

[baitism]

Is Gordon hurt? He was finally playing well and we sit him. I don't get that.

What'd you think of the stadium and seeing a game here? It was a good game and having a sold out crowd made it awesome. The fireworks at the end were decent too.

[CasselGotPeedOn]

Lol Soler is an adventure in the outfield.

It's still on Esky. Hosmer bails him out sometimes but you have to make that play. He's not nearly as good on defense as he used to be/we pretend he is.

Oh you know my kids would never shut up. They would leave Rex no time to get a word in.

It's a nice stadium... it was easy getting in and not that bad getting out. It was my first inside baseball game, and it was cool to see it open up for the fireworks. I think we were basically behind you, in the 2nd row of 313. Three of us were wearing Royals stuff, so we didn't make much effort to fit in, heh.

[C3HIEF3S]

FSKC tends to choose the most cringe-worthy, socially-awkward children for their segments. Not that I wasn't a cringe-worthy, socially-awkward child, but there are children out there who could embrace segments like this.

[penbrook]

Moss either sucks or the whole left side sucks

[Why Not?]

JFC fuckers! Basic throws. And Torres had a play at second. I like this kid but that's 2 mental mistakes this series.

[CasselGotPeedOn]

Defense with some serious lulz that half inning.

[lewdog]

Oh you know my kids would never shut up. They would leave Rex no time to get a word in.

Good. That's how it should be.

The kids each year that win this booth thing barely talk. How the hell did they win this?!?!

[Why Not?]

Whitley!

Whit with the hit! 1-0 And steals 3rd...

[Al Bundy]

Make 'em pay.

[Why Not?]

Hos!

Good. That's how it should be.

Kids who sit in their room alone calling games might be socially awkward?!

[penbrook]

Hosmer beating the shift

[C3HIEF3S]

Noticed that shift when I was at the game last night, the Twins have absolutely no belief that Hosmer can pull the ball with authority. I don't think I had ever personally seen a RF play that far left.

[penbrook]

Salvy!!

[Al Bundy]

Keep the line moving men.

[Why Not?]

Now we doing work, boys!!!

[PHOG]

Moar runs! :clap:

Oh....so you're one of those. :#

Sano would be a unanimous first ballot HOF'er if he played the Royals everyday.

LMAO

Before last night, I wasn't, but if we all do it... :shrug: And we were watching the Royals game, too. :D

[siberian khatru]

Outstanding

[Why Not?]

God, if Wood can stabilize the 5 spot...

[Spott]

Nice K there.

[PHOG]

Nice K....but I hope Yost has him on the short leash from here on.

[Why Not?]

Nice K....but I hope Yost has him on the short leash from here on.

He's got to be nearing pitch limit. It's his first start. No way he goes past 5, if that even.

[penbrook]

Nice K....but I hope Yost has him on the short leash from here on.

He said the plan was 70-75 pitches

[WhawhaWhat]

He's our Zobrist

Zobrist was a late bloomer as well. Didn't come up until 25 but didn't become a regular until he was 27/28.

[C3HIEF3S]

Stay hot, Esky.

[penbrook]

Esky stay hot!!

[PHOG]

Esky again!

[lewdog]

ESKY wants to flip all of us the bird.

Go ahead. En Fuego!!!

[siberian khatru]

It's Esky's world, and we just live in it

[penbrook]

Gordon hot as well!

[lewdog]

Who are you?!?!

[petegz28]

MOAR RUNS!!!!!!!

[lewdog]

These fucking ass clowns.

Gordon and ESKY playing well. Soler making plays in the field. Wood pitching like Kerry Wood.

Insane!

[lewdog]

The right fielder's effort on that play was gross, man.

[CasselGotPeedOn]

Terrible Boni

[siberian khatru]

Dammit, Boni

[penbrook]

Boni just make contact

[penbrook]

Loading the bases for Salvy... um okay

[siberian khatru]

Crap, wanted at least one more out of that

[Bearcat]

ROFL

I actually do that quite a bit if I'm not all that invested in the live game (I wouldn't ever do it at like a Royals playoff game, of course).... I'd go to hockey games in Omaha in the spring and would have the KU BB game on. And with two baseball games, it's not non-stop action, it's glancing at the phone every 20-30 seconds at most (and it was more like every couple minutes).

[C3HIEF3S]

The right fielder's effort on that play was gross, man.

I see Whit you did there.

[petegz28]

you just got handed a 5-0 lead...throw strikes damn it!

Have you ever thrown a baseball before? I have a sneaking suspicion you never have. Did you hear the broadcast? Most pitches he has thrown in a game in over two years. He's accustomed to throwing 15-20 pitches per appearance. Not 80, yet.

That'd be like telling you to go run 10 miles, even though you haven't ran further than 6 miles in 2 years. Oh yeah, on top of that, you have to maintain the same pace on mile 10 as you did on mile 3.

[petegz28]

shut this shit down, Alexander...they will score at least 1 more ..let's keep it at that

[KChiefs1]

He said the plan was 70-75 pitches


Should have pulled him at 70.

I played BB for 10 years, I think I might have thrown the ball a few times during that period.

[Why Not?]

I don't really put that on Wood. Should have never started the 5th. First start in a year and a half. He was over 60 pitches through 4. I get wanting him to get a win but getting the team win is far more vital here.

[PHOG]

And that's all for Wood, nice outing, but needs to further extend his pitch count.

[KChiefs1]

Stupid Ned.

No fault on Wood there, the stupid pitcher's win got in Ned's head. Should've stuck to the 70-75 pitch plan.

Wood pitched better than expected. Can't hate that start.

Basketball? Bowling ball? Obviously not baseball, or else you wouldn't post dumb comments like that.

[penbrook]

Gordon with a freaking cannon to Salvy

[lewdog]

FUCK ME sideways.

[siberian khatru]

We're in deep doo-doo

[petegz28]

yeah, asking for strikes is dumb...got it....

[Why Not?]

Of course Sano is on deck. Why wouldn't he be?

[TomBarndtsTwin]

Twins '2015 Royaling' the Royals here . . . . .

[C3HIEF3S]

We've got the right guy on the mound to rack two.

Groundball rate of 75% on the dot for Alexander. Highest in all of baseball.

[petegz28]

how quickly can the Royals blow a 5 run lead before recording an out?

[Why Not?]

I'll be very happy if this half ends with KC in the lead.

[penbrook]

I'm calling a Sano bomb here

[petegz28]

please dont pitch to this guy

[KChiefs1]

I'm ok with the walk there.


Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

[Why Not?]

I'm fine with that. Can't let Sano beat you. Got to make pitches now

[PHOG]

Might get someone else up throwing too, just in case. But that will work too.

[petegz28]

nice..big time DP! Love it

[Why Not?]

Alexander you beautiful bastard!

[C3HIEF3S]

Just got higher.

[Spott]

Nice.

[siberian khatru]

Hell yeah! That went about as well as could be expected

[TomBarndtsTwin]

VERY lucky to get out of that allowing only two!

Nice job, Alexander.

[PHOG]

Ned almost waited to long to yank Wood. :eek:

[C3HIEF3S]

We are really going to like Soler.

[penbrook]

Soler is heating up

[siberian khatru]

I want to have Ramon Torres' babies

[penbrook]

Torres would be a perfect lead off or #2 hitter

[C3HIEF3S]

Soler and Torres revving up the bus this inning.

[Why Not?]

Well, Brandon Moss will always have 7/1/17

[penbrook]

Moss can take his ass to the bench

[Coach]

Come on Esky, just got solid contact.

[penbrook]

ESKY!!

[Coach]

There you go!

Hey! Hey!

[Why Not?]

Not a hotter hitter going.

[C3HIEF3S]

Stay hot, Esky.

[penbrook]

Esky reviving his career offensively right before our eyes

[CasselGotPeedOn]

Try a double steal here

[Coach]

Damn it. At least got one run back.

[penbrook]

Fuck Torres!! He broke Eskys bat

[jimidollar]

What? Soler and Moss struck out in the same inning. Weird.

[PHOG]

Just foul by that much.

[petegz28]

I won't ask for a 1-2-3 inning from Kelvin cause I know that's damn near impossible. But I will ask for less than a 4 run inning.

[TLO]

If the Royals win, does it deserve a rep thread?

[Bowser]

You know what I think would be cool? How about we stop using Herrera in non save opportunities, especially in back to back games. I think that would be pretty cool.

[dlphg9]

We're going to lose this fucking thing

[Bearcat]

I'm not sure we're all watching the same game.

[petegz28]

Kelvin had a 1-2-3 inning all season?

[siberian khatru]

Jesus Christ, Herrera

[petegz28]

FFS, are you kidding me? 4 run lead and you are walking people with 2 outs?

[KChiefs1]

I'd like to have the old Herrera back.

Nice job. Big series win. The next week will be huge. Fucking Indians basically get a bye week. They're probably going 4-2 at worst. We need 3-3 at worst on this trip

Indians have a much more difficult August but the next 11 games for them are easy peasy while we have to go face seattle and LA. Hopefully they go 6-5 at best.
