Dartgod 04-07-2013 01:35 PM

Another slam for Billay and $25,000 for a lucky fan?

SPchief 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Base hit 2 RBI works

tk13 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

We'll take that.

Crush 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Strongside 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Billy Butler is a manchild.

penbrook 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

That will work.

Cephalic Trauma 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Billy!

stonedstooge 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

w00t! 8-4 Royals. Butler with 7 ribbies

tk13 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Actually Butler has 7 RBI.

SPchief 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

BOOOOOOOOOOOOO

lewdog 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Perfect piece of hitting, going with the pitch. Short and quick.

RedDread 04-07-2013 01:36 PM

Salvy needs to get in on the act here.

Dartgod 04-07-2013 01:37 PM

All this started with a 2 out single by Shields.

Strongside 04-07-2013 01:37 PM

Can't wait for Perez' bat to come around.

He and Moose have looked pretty bad, although Salvy with much better contact on pitches. I see him coming around sooner than Moose.

BigMeatballDave 04-07-2013 01:38 PM

This is the offense I was hoping to see this season.

He's heating up for sure. 7 RBI is a week's worth of work.

I'll be damned if I haven't grown to love Hud in the booth, that goofy mother****er.

Still have the sound off here

Strongside 04-07-2013 01:42 PM

I have also grown to like Hud. He's just so damned weird that it causes him to be an acquired taste.

lewdog 04-07-2013 01:42 PM

Remember 2 hours ago when James Shields sucked? I don't see Shields coming out for the 7th though.

Billy still has a good chance for more RBI. Still at least one at bat coming up for him.

stonedstooge 04-07-2013 01:46 PM

Shields getting hit harder that inning

tk13 04-07-2013 01:46 PM

Shields right at 100 pitches. We'll see what Yost does. Last couple guys got good wood on the ball.

mr. tegu 04-07-2013 01:47 PM

Props to Shields for staying in the game mentally and shutting them down. Our number one last year would have continued the implosion and given us an 8 run deficit.

MeatRock 04-07-2013 01:47 PM

Hud's a ****ing moron, but a goofy moron. He can be tolerable and very annoying in the same game.

The one that bothers me the most is Montgomery for some reason. He is just very strange.

And, on a side not, this Olathe Lincoln commercial with the laughing child makes me want to jump off of the Kit Bond bridge and blow myself up before I hit the water.

Ceej 04-07-2013 01:47 PM

Frenchy, the Royals Vlad Guerrero of swinging at bad pitches.

mr. tegu 04-07-2013 01:50 PM

We seem to take forever to score and aren't really getting much going until at least the third or fourth inning. Is that some kind of issue with scouting? Or is it simply a coincidence because of poor weather in Chicago and unfamiliar pitchers we are facing against Philly?

GloryDayz 04-07-2013 01:50 PM

OK, I'm here, if we even take a sniff at losing this lead, I'm outta here in an effort to help get a win!

Herrera was not. Crow was not. Collins pitched two innings the day before and was not available. At that point, you're looking at one of three guys, all of whom had pitched the day before:

Luke Hochevar (yeah, let's bring him in with the bases juiced and nobody out)

JC Gutierrez (nope)

Bruce Chen (again, bases juiced, nobody out, not the situation to use him)

You saying he hurt Holland's ego is complete bullshit. Anybody who pitched at a high/competitive level will tell you the pitcher WANTS the trust from his skipper in that spot.

I certainly did (pitched at the high school/legion level). Every guy I ever covered in a high school, college or major level level certainly did.

If Kelvin Herrera had been rested and sitting in the bullpen, sure, you have an option to replaced Holland. As it was, he was KC's best chance of getting out of that inning, even with the struggles he'd already displayed.

Well WANTiNG the trust from your 'skip' and BELIEVING IN YOURSELF to GET that trust when you have already walked 2 only to walk a 3rd are 2 different realities here my friend. Pull him, he doesn't have it today. Anyone is better than a pitcher that gets the 'BB disease'. He may have been the best option in the beginning but after the 1st walk I'm warming someone up just in case because I have a F'N lead on the road and will not lose it to the 'BB disease' come hell or high water. The deeper question here is how do you allow yourself as manager to get your pitching staff into this situation where there are limited options only 5 games into the season?

Looks like the new hitting coach has really gotten Frenchy to cut down on his swing with 2 strikes

How bout just not throwing a fastball dead center when a pinch hitter is sitting dead red.
