[TLO]

OLIVARES

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

Then the Chiefs / Titans play at 5 on NFLN. Gonna be a nice day.

[Doctor Fauci]

I sure do love a good baseball game!

[ChiefsCountry]

Whit with the double

[PHOG]

Good job. Way to start off the game.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

I think Keller's thighs are too big to pitch accurately

[siberian khatru]

So much for Keller being fixed

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Got out of that only allowing one run. I'll take it.

[TLO]

Keller´s stuff looked good. Just couldn't locate for shit.

Only 1 run given up but a lot of pitches.

[PHOG]

Aaaand Keller gives the run right back.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Olivares does a fine job filling in for Soler by perfectly emulating his typical AB.

[ChiefsCountry]

Keller seemed to be squeezed in the first. Hopefully he corrects it.

[Doctor Fauci]

Keller is about 2 weeks behind Shoemaker here.

[PHOG]

At this rate, Keller will be out in the 4th.

[displacedinMN]

Twins season is over and it is just Memorial day weekend.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Nice, easy inning for Keller there.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Can somebody tell the Royals that this pitcher sucks and it's okay to get hits off of him?

[PHOG]

Cy Young candidate Shoemaker mowing down the Royals with 11 straight, or is it twelve?

[crayzkirk]

Time for some RUNZ!

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Time for some RUNZ!

But...Matt Shoemaker.

[ChiefsCountry]

Keller is now mowing them down

[ChiefsCountry]

Now we are going....

[PHOG]

Good hustle Dozier!

[ChiefsCountry]

Nice oppo Dyson

[PHOG]

Two-hit Whit! Dozier scores.

[ChiefsCountry]

Now we are getting to Cy Shoemaker

[PHOG]

Now we are getting to Cy Shoemaker
And he gone.

[PHOG]

Salvy with the hit. 5-2

[Mama Hip Rockets]

I like this inning.

[petegz28]

Fuck you, Keller!

[PHOG]

C'mon Keller, damn.

[lewdog]

Fucking shit.

[petegz28]

Keller gonna blow the 3 run lead before he even records an out...

[Mama Hip Rockets]

There we go.

[petegz28]

We walk people like it's a fucking tradition

[Pablo]

Beautiful George Floyd banner in right field. Touching.

[TLO]

Keller is a magician.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

**** you, Keller!

I was just getting ready to post about how pleasant this thread has been without you here. But you showed up right on cue!

[petegz28]

Could have been worse but damn...stop walking people!

[PHOG]

He's probably done now.

[Doctor Fauci]

This Brad Keller fella has worse control than I do.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Olivares looking good! 2 hits and some nice hustle on the basepaths.

[Doctor Fauci]

As Rex Hudler would say... "that's some cheese at the knees hungry rat!"

[petegz28]

I was just getting ready to post about how pleasant this thread has been without you here. But you showed up right on cue!

Oh were ya?

[PHOG]

Nicely done Zimmer :clap:

[Chiefspants]

Amazing to see Zim so lights out.

[TLO]

May as well let him go out there next inning as well.

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Oh were ya?

I was. You gonna yell at the ump about it?

[petegz28]

I was. You gonna yell at the ump about it?

[Dartgod]

Haha, eat my shit Donaldson.

[Chiefspants]

LMAO

[PHOG]

Sit down Donaldson!! :p

[PHOG]

On comes Barlow.

[PHOG]

Nice job Barlow!

[TLO]

Nice work

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Barlow rules/Sano is terrible.

[TLO]

Why do we hate Donaldson again? Can someone remind me?

[Chiefspants]

Why do we hate Donaldson again? Can someone remind me?

The 2015 Jays. TBF he wasn't nearly as obnoxious to the Royals as R.A. Dickey and Jose Bautista iirc -- but he threw an absolute fit when BBQ Eddie Volquez hit him in his Darth Vader body armor, accusing him of head hunting. This was in spite of the fact of him always crowding the plate and wearing that obnoxious body armor every time he came up to bat.

When the 2015 Jays beat us 3-1 in an August series they declared themselves the best team in baseball and (to their credit) went on an insane 42-14 run at that point or some such. Unfortunately for them, pennants aren't won in August :)

[Al Czervik]

Why do we hate Donaldson again? Can someone remind me?

He is the classic Douchebag.....
And has been from the moment he came into the league.

[petegz28]

Whatever the issue is with the walks, they have got to stop. We are at like 35+ walks in the last 6 games.

[petegz28]

Ouch...looked like he trapped the ball between his thumb and glove

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Why do we hate Donaldson again? Can someone remind me?

He's a fucking whiny douchebag crybaby. Throws a fit any time he doesn't agree with an ump's call. He's like Pete on an actual baseball team.

[TLO]

Wouldn't mind a run or two for insurance.

[ROYC75]

:cuss: :banghead: Damn, more walks? :banghead::cuss:

[petegz28]

He's a ****ing whiny douchebag crybaby. Throws a fit any time he doesn't agree with an ump's call. He's like Pete on an actual baseball team.

Except I ain't said shit about the Ump.....other than that

[Chiefspants]

Insurance!!!

[PHOG]

Goodbye!! Dozier!!

[petegz28]

Dozier with a good game today....

[ChiefsCountry]

Dozierdong!!!

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Dozdong!

[Mama Hip Rockets]

Except I ain't said shit about the Ump.....other than that

:LOL:

Yeah. You've never complained about an ump. Ever.

[Chiefspants]

Safe

[petegz28]

Looked safe to me....

[PHOG]

Safe!!

[ROYC75]

BULLDOZIER!

[petegz28]

:LOL:

Yeah. You've never complained about an ump. Ever.

Neither have you or anyone else, right? :drool:

Perhaps you would be happier focusing more on the game and less on me?

[petegz28]

3+ runs or 3 outs.....which comes first????

[ChiefsCountry]

3+ runs or 3 outs.....which comes first????

You are a miserable cunt

[ROYC75]

3+ runs or 3 outs.....which comes first????

With Drama & Greg?

Ya never know!

[Mama Hip Rockets]

He's a ****ing whiny douchebag crybaby. Throws a fit any time he doesn't agree with an ump's call. He's like Pete on an actual baseball team.

Exhibit A: Donaldson doesn't like a bad called strike. He stands there and shows up the umpire so much that the manager has to come out and defend him. Then he hits a homer and kicks dirt over home plate as he crosses it. Just a giant douchebag.

[petegz28]

You are a miserable ****

Say what you will but what I said is the exact situation. We need 3 outs, they need 3+ runs.

[ROYC75]

PBJ

[Al Czervik]

Nice job Holland!!!
Good win by KC today!!!!

[Chiefspants]

Greg is channeling his 2014 slider today. He still has that gear but his slider isn't as consistently on like it used to be. He still can hit that level, though, which is why he's great to have in a spot like this. This is a big difference from Wade, who has been unable to avoid hard contact all year.

Great win.

[petegz28]

Nice road win for the series....

[ChiefsCountry]

Winner!!!!

[TLO]

3-3 road trip.

Chance to get back to .500 on the season tomorrow.

[PHOG]

Winner! Nice job! :thumb:

Exhibit B: Here's a compilation of him being a douchebag. Yelling at his own manager, yelling at pitchers, yelling at umpires, yelling at fans, trying to fight, having stupid hair, talking in a stupid redneck voice, making stupid jokes, wearing stupid clothes. Just a complete douche in every way.

"Josh, get the fuck outta here"

LMAO

[srvy]

I'll take 2 out of 3 on the road. Hoping this signals Dozier is gonna start heating up. As the weather heats up maybe the pitching arms and bats can heat up.

Hahaha thats kind of funny

[Dartgod]

My two favorite Josh Donaldson moments ever. Both plays sent us to the next round of the playoffs and that douche nozzle got to watch us celebrate while his season was ending.

[Deberg_1990]

Donaldson and Jose Bautista were two of the easiest guys to root against ever.

Yeah Bautista just quietly...retired i guess ? Or maybe he announced it,i cant remember.But yeah i couldnt stand him either.

I'm standing here watching these in Walmart while my kids look at toys, and I'm still getting goosebumps all these years later.

[Why Not?]

Donaldson and Jose Bautista were two of the easiest guys to root against ever.

Bautista may have been my least favorite player of all time. He sucks and plays for the Yankees now but I will always kinda love Roughned Odor for decking Bautista in 2016.

[lcarus]

Funny watching Donaldson getting mad like he actually got hit by that pitch. Clearly went off the end of the bat and he knew it.
