Anyone know what they were? I don't have Twitter.

Part of it:

"I thought Jim Wolf did a tremendous job understanding the game"

Butthurt over a win

MLBN seems to think the Royals were at fault today by throwing at the BJ's heads. Hmmmm

What the **** happened? Did we do another heel turn or what?

Harold Reynolds wasn't on there. It was Floyd and Mcgrane who hate the Royals. Plesac and Reynolds would agree with Yost

Volquez did intentionally hit the Jays' best player to start the game for no good reason, which started the whole thing. So yeah, I'd say that's a fair reading of this.

Social media hates us right now. Apparently we are thugs and need to be taken down a notch.

Isn't it amazing when no one gets hit in the face everyone gets all mad because they thought he was aiming for his face and if someone does get hit in the face it automatically becomes sad and the pitcher didn't mean to do it

The ball that was near his head was a damn changeup. Eddy's changeup kind of floats around and almost up at times. The first hbp looked like it could have been a purpose pitch. The one up near his head did not. Eddy even kind of pointed to his chest afterward as he and Donaldson were talking.

Infante almost got beaned earlier in the series.....should he have lost his shit also?

Hey guys,

I forgot to mention, good game;)

Those guys are up there hanging over the plate, coming out of their shoes on every pitch. Every now and then, you have to keep guys honest. I get it when we're hot with the bats and someone gets one in the ribs/leg/butt. That's baseball. The second ball that was high and tight was a changeup, it wasn't a purpose pitch.

Hitting Esky probably shouldn't get a guy kicked out later in the game. When you have a guy get hit, you did what Zobrist did and put one in the seats. That's the best response.

IDC what Ned said, that first HBP on Donaldson was intentional. Volqy was making up for the Moose HBP late in yesterdays game. The other HBP from Madson wasn't intentional. The following HBP to Esky was intentional and Sanchez needed ejection. This stuff is just part of the game. But I didn't see the Royals crying about it. Donaldson acted like a baby.

All true. RIP George Springer's career.

Had no problem with any pitch a Royal threw after the one in the first inning to Donaldson. The first one was clearly an unnecessary beanball (which precipitated the whole conflict) and it came out of nowhere. Volquez started this today.

Donaldson embarrassed himself bitching about the called 3rd strike in the 8th. Dude just wouldn't shut up today

You hit moose and we'll probably hit donaldson. I guess they don't know what even score in Canada means? Take your base and STFU.

Mike Moustakas and his knee would disagree with you.

Rationalize it however you want. Volquez threw a beanball at the other team's best player for no good reason to start a game (he hilariously said after the game it had to do with Donaldson "pimping" HRs, not anything to do with Hendriks unintentionally hitting Mous the day before). If that doesn't happen, the rest doesn't.

Roads torn to shit. Might have something to do with, oh I dont know getting ten feet of snow a year and being cold as shit for months on end.

Ive been to Target Field. Like the K better as a stadium. But Target is in a Wonderful location. I have no idea how anyone would covet where Kaufman is over Target Field. I did not have anymore problems getting out of Target than I do at the K

Probably didn't help the Jays were being very obvious about stealing signs as well.

So you advocate throwing beanballs at the other team whenever somebody in this league gets hit unintentionally in the knee?

That's a hell of a lot of unnecessary beanballs. LMAO

No wonder this Royals team has been getting in so many of these ridiculous disputes this season.

What the hell are you talking about? This was carry-over from game 3.

When did you become a pussy?

Still trying to rationalize moose for Donaldson And being even? It's Donaldson acting like a child that will get him hit more. Oh and his plate crowding and leaning into pitches. Back up if you don't want to get hit with inside pitching.

Pussy? All I said was that Volquez intentionally hit a player for no good reason (an unintentional hit batter the day before certainly isn't one) and it caused the conflict.

Yeah, because that's totally what I typed. You stated that Volquez's beaning of Donaldson came out of nowhere. My post and Lew's before me, show you to be wrong. Out of nowhere doesn't exist in baseball.

So now it's you determining what is and isn't intentional? ****ing Canadians!

It will all be forgotten until October.

Nobody else had thrown a beanball in this series before Volquez decided to start this bullshit in the first inning today. Not actually sure how that is up for debate.

I'll withdraw the pussy remark and offer my apologies. But it was not for no good reason.

Not the last we will see of Donaldson and Bautista getting cracked with their flailing left arms hanging over the plate.

It doesn't take a genius to recognize that Volquez hit Donaldson on purpose in the first inning, I'm afraid. LMAO

Reading fail

An unintentional hit batter in the knee the day before is a pretty bad reason to be starting beanball wars where there was no conflict before, no?

Right. So what about Hendricks on moose? You seemed to have determined a fastball to the knee wasn't intentional. How kind of you.

This. You don't get to decide what's intentional or not. The players do.

You clearly don't understand how baseball works. I can't really continue this "debate". You have a good team and won the series. If the Jays can get to the playoffs, maybe it wil be decided then.

Don't steal signs, dont get beaned. This was just a baseball game and the sport governing itself. Both teams are doing what both teams should do, but the Donaldson temper tantrum at the plate was hilarious. "I crowds the plate and that big bad pitcher man threw too close to me!!!"

The Royals tried to bean the Jays what? 4 times?

Pfffffft....lol obviously theyre trying to get under our players skins somehow. It's awfully hard to hit players 4 times in a game by accident.

But that's okay. I'm liking this. This is developing into a rivalry.

Hey Kansas City Royals fans, move on over.....There is a new sheriff in town and his name is the Toronto Bluejays.

Because I was watching the game, considered the game situation, and was capable of recognizing what that was. No idea how anybody could have believed that was intentional.

Donaldson has clearly been where he belongs. Shitbag whiney Oakland and now pussyville Canada.

LMAO

Okay admit it, you're just jealous he's not on Kansas City.

Is this the stealing signs from the OF bullshit or the kind of stealing signs that every team does at 2B?

Series is over and KC moves on. We won't think of you again until next year.

Hate to break the news but the Royals are still the sheriff in town. If you HAVNT noticed already this is how the Royals play. It's not just towards your Blue Jays. You hit the Royals on purpose or accident you will pay for it

Dude, you really have to work on your trolling game. If you think any Royals fan gave a shit about this series 5 minutes after it ended, you are delusional. Oh and your new "sherrif" would be doing the same thing as the Phillies if the season ended today.

And now I wasn't watching the game?! Hilarious. If the players think it was intentional something might happen. Take it like a man and take your base. Crowd the plate, act like a douche with bat flips and rah-rah yelling and shit might happen. Would be nice if Donaldson actually had a pair of balls that matched the size of his actions and mouth. Sadly those were probably taken at customs.

He don't really tolerate whiny bitches in KC. Ventura is the only exception to this point and we tried to send him down.

Obviously Volquez hit Donaldson on purpose. After that, Donaldson's actions were a disgrace the entire game. Little ****ing Bitch.

I understand that Volquez intentionally hit somebody to initiate this conflict today and that you are trying to rationalize that action in any way you can.

Pitching inside = OMG ATTEMPTED MURDER

Oh, I'm sure you were watching the game. That doesn't necessarily mean you understood what you were watching, though (if you thought the Hendriks' pitch was intentional). LMAO

The only actions I didn't approve of this year was Ventura. He went too far early in year. Today, nothing wrong with what anyone did.

Oh yeah, I forgot. You are the guy that is an advocate for flopping in basketball and trying to cheat in general. Blue Jays lack integrity

And it initiated the conflict. That's all I said.

I agree.

So you're not an advocate of the stealing signs from the OF conspiracy theory? That's a relief.

Shame Donaldson couldn't wear one for his team and had to embarrass himself and his team.

Even the BJ announcers were calling the warning bullshit and why this escalated.

Anyone arguing Volquez didn't hit Donaldson on purpose is a fool. Donaldson clearly did something that angered the Royals as that was a blatant beaning in the first inning.

After THAT, Donaldson was ridiculous. ****ing cried all game long. Madson clearly wasn't trying to hit him and he ****ing stopped the game because a pitch got away from Madson. Just embarrassing.

As a baseball fan, and a fan of the unwritten rules of the game, Donaldson was flat out embarrassing today.

Oh, the umpire did a terrible job today and that also obviously played into it. I wouldn't have given the warning at all.

All around weird game. Yost thought the ump called a great game.

BJ's are good. Maybe too late.

Of course Volquez hit Donaldson on purpose. That was never up for question.

It's never to late for a good BJ

Whatever Donaldson supposedly did to them in the first 3 games ("pimping" HRs, getting a walkoff hit? LMAO) was not worth a beanball like that. It's thinking like that that has gotten the Royals into so many of these silly conflicts this year.

I'm starving. Dude can I ask for some bread please? Lol

Don't fall for that stupid shit. You're way too intelligent to be drawn into that horseshit.

Yost is just defending his players. That's his job. Maybe that was really his honest opinion, but who knows.

Jose Fernandez hit somebody in the face on complete accident last week and Chip Hale had a hissy fit about it after the game. The pussification of this sport is reaching embarrassing heights. If Donaldson was a man, he'd have roped that 3-2 pitch Madson threw him rather than striking out like the Bitch that he is ...

But no, he had a tough game and instead of taking it in stride he decided to incite ejections and a bench clearing incident ...

All because he wasn't man enough to just run to 1st in the 1st inning and let his play to the talking for him

Instead, he whined like a Bitch and cried all game long. **** him

No one is arguing that it wasn't on purpose.

You'll have to be more specific on this one.

It has happened numerous times this year where a Royal was hit early and both teams were given warnings. This time it just happened to be the Royals doing the hitting. The Ump was consistent with what we've seen all year.

I'm not getting it. Is this some Canadian humor or something?

And no one cares what Jose Bautista thinks. Thanks for taking your talents to Canada and wasting them up there.

The irony is that Brett Lawrie did that earlier this year after the Royals hit him and they hit him again intentionally anyway. LMAO

He's playing circle jerk around a slice of bread. Canada's past time.

It's baseball. Volquez hit him on purpose in the back. That's that. It happens. Instead of Donaldson being a man about it and letting his play do the talking for him, he reacted like a ****ing twat. Is Donaldson the first guy ever to get hit on purpose? His crying today was embarrassing. I was flat out embarrassed by Ventura in the White Sox fiasco, because his actions were flat out embarrassing. Today? Donaldson was EMBARRASSING

You're not much of a fan of Canada, it seems.
