Kansas City Royals vs Minnesota Twins Game Thread (8/1)
 

Let's get #9 today!

in

A Hud-Less Game!

Tribe up 3-0 over the chisox

So this is an MLB.tv exclusive game today. There are no announcers to go along with the video. It is really quite strange.

Anybody have a link to one of the streaming sites for today's game?

You can practice your play-by-play

Vipbox is money.

This one works.

Listening while at work.

Nine would be fine.

This is so much fun. Its exciting for it to be August and we are all still following the Royal s everyday. It truly is momentous. Its been far to long. younger fans have no idea what it was like back in the 80s watching the Royals in the middle of pennant races.

Yeah I wish I could've seen it.

Maxwell can catch routine fly balls!

In some ways, we've already won

Streaming hopefully.

7 pitch first inning for Shields. Very nice!

Hud is probably in NYC already, gettin' his freak on in some back alley Chinese opium den with Bucky Dent.

Indians up 5-0, Detroit has the day off

Freaking Indians. :#

The Twinkies annoucer just said Ned's original lineup this morning had Maxwell in center and Lough in LF but he decided to change it.

Because KC.

Bases loaded no outs for the Royals after an error by the 3B. Moose to hit.

Bases juiced for Moose!

The Twins are ****ing awful.

RAGE!!!!

Sac fly for Moose. Cain went to third and Tejada at second base.

Moose gets his 25th RBI of the season...

Maxwell for president!

Maxwell with a hard hit single for an RBI!

Maxwell! Maxwell!

Moose with the SAC fly, Ned pissed.

Show your stuff, Maxwell

Hah, good start Maxwell. He slapped that ball hard.

Laz is pissed now.

Vernon for 3, swish!!!!!

Here comes a bunt.

Here comes a DP for Escobar.

And...nailed it.

Escobar didn't look like he was hussling at all. If he beats it out we get another run.

Would have been better than real outcome

Al was just jogging to 1st

I wish we could hit Escobar 10th.

He's a disaster. Can't hit...doesn't hustle...not even fielding well...

I'm not sure he gives a shit. Certainly doesn't look like it most games.

Maxwell played that 2b like crap. Horrible angle.

rep

Then it would take longer to get back to the top of the order. :D

Need a double play here.

He looks like a guy that needs a day off.

For some reason Shieds isn't attacking these last few hitters.

This ump is way tight from where I'm sitting

Back-to-back walks. ****.

Shields with back to back walks to load them up....

The guy can be gold glove quality on occasion, then he can do something stupid like throwing the ball into the Twins dugout in a one run game like last night.

He needs to hit with about 30 points more on his average. If he could stay around .260 or .270 we'd be fine with him. He's having a down year. Not ready to give up on him just yet.

Wow by Gordon!

You clearly never watch baseball.

Wow, great play Gordon....

Phew!

I love in the link how it says I need to download their update to Java to watch the feed as the feed is playing behind it. Heh.

Bullet = dodged

You know they have about a 25% success rate with those. People like my parents who just blindly click on shit

Agree. I think the grind might be wearing on him, and smelliot should get a start or two. Hopefully he returns to the guy he can be, and not the guy he currently is.

HUDLER ALERT

Gordon with a leadoff triple!

Maxwell belongs on the Twins!

I like how at the bottom it says, "This is a free site. If you have been directed here from a pay site, ask for your money back."

Lead-off triple for Alex. Nice to see him heating up again. Now if we could get Fat Billy to start driving the ball.

I suppose some people click on it just to make it go away. It IS annoying, covering up 60% of the screen....

Hosmer with the RBI flyout. 3-0 Royals, top of the third.

The Sox got a run! Yay!

There should be a small x on it to click. I can always get them off. But it is typically hidden.

Steve Physioc is the worst. I can't stand him. When paired with Hudler, I have to turn the volume off

Butler, continuing to suck.

Some of the game is on TV on Dishnetwork Channel 9434.

The Show is called The Rundown. They are showing parts of Chicago/Cleveland, Mets/Marlins, and Royals/Twins

They are obsessed with filming this bird that is hanging out in the field. ROFL

Do the Minnesota cameramen have some sort of bird fetish?

As you're watching CLE manhandle the White Sox today, remember their final 17 games: 4 at CWS, 3 at KC, 4 vs. Houston, 2 vs. CWS, 4 at Minn.

You think Escobar is playing well in the field lately?

James must not think this is a big game

Glad that the Royals are grouped in with those guys. :#

Yes, Twins. Please give up an out in the 3rd inning with a sac bunt.
