***April 2nd KC Royals GDT***
 

0-0 after one inning...

Thought Alec Marsh was a lefty... guess I was wrong...

Renfroe is doing an outstanding job at being the new Dozier. What a bum.

There we go... Nice job Loftin...

I don't like Renfroe

Garcia with the 2-run double 3-0 again

go royals!

Big Maik!

Maikel! Nice!

Ooof, thought Salvy got more of that one.

Yes he did, and I also thought Renfroe got a hit but no.

Renfroe would have had a homer in the old band box field at Camden

I wonder what kind of leash they're gonna give Renfroe. He does play the OF well but man that bat looks slow and even when he barrelled that last one it only has warning track power.

He makes solid contact but they haven't fallen in, from what I've seen of him, which is very early.

Seriously? Goddammit.

HERE WE GO ROYALS HERE WE GO

It's the Royals. He'll be getting plenty of playing time at least until the ASB.

You're probably right and I don't know what they'd do in RF if he were dumped. Just hoping he gets it turned around and we don't have to worry about it.

Yikes. Loftin's lucky that ball didn't take his glove off with his hand still in it.

Need Pratto and Waters to force the Royals hand.

I think that injury Renfroe had in spring training is effecting him.

I'm quickly beginning to really dislike this Mountcastle guy.

Garcia with an RBI triple

Garcia having a game

Atta boy Maikel! As Hud would say, he's driving the bus today...

I couldn't find a reliable stream with KC's announcers, so I'm having to suffer through the Orioles announcers....thinking muted would be the way.

You don't like listening to Grant Hill getting interviewed?

Ryan O'Hearn sucks the sweat from a dead man's balls.

Actually, compared to the rest, that wasn't too bad, but I mean come on!

Renfroe blows.

When I said this earlier, I had just turned the game on a few minutes before and I didn't realize how cold and rainy it was. I'll give him a pass on the missed HR.

Even though that was foul, Garcia is just blistering the ball.

Witt sucks (tonight)

Dammit. Defense had him played perfectly.

Yeah, between his shot to the warning track, and Salvy's, those balls are probably off the wall or over the fence in July.

What is this? Competent starting pitching? Do we actually have a real starting rotation this year?

Wait for it...

C'mon pen.

Eat a bag of shit Ryan O'Hearn.

Marsh is having a nice night

Promising first trip through the order.

Unfortunately the bullpen doesn't seem to be able to hold onto it. It's like a reverse of 14/15.

Man... Alec Marsh having a day. 76 pitches, 54 strikes. 7IP, 2H, 5K's. Outstanding.

And then pull him.

HOpefully the bullpen doesn't shit this one away.

Renfroe is shit.

And looks like they're going to pull him. Absolute ridiculous

Screw you Heasley

Starting pitching looks pretty gawdamn salty. Hope the relievers and the bats can get it going to match

I hope at least 2 of the 3 are on at the same time all year. Could result in a fun summer.

That’s boner inducing

That looked fair to me on the live look.

Sure did, apparently there weren't any cameras with a closer look at the right field line. Fortunately for us.

A scoreless inning by the bullpen!

Sadly, the bullpen is boner repellent.

Dammit. Double screw you Heasley.

Thank you Baltimore for the deep left field fence. Things you wouldn't have said 10 years ago.

Nice win!

Nice bounce back, Smith

Nice win R's! Great start Marsh!

That'll do it! Nice win. Starting pitching has been outstanding! Very, very good start from Marsh.

2-3

.500 is one game away
