Rubber match coming up. :thumb:

Boston lost 20-7 to the Rockies LMAO

I saw that earlier. What a butt kicking.

DP to end the Diamondbacks half of the 1st, Royals coming up.

Nice piece of hitting Vinnie. C'mon Salvy! Get 'em home!

Goddammit.

Salvy hits a 1st pitch DP ball, no score after 1.

Damn Sal

Ooooof... that was a bomb.

A solo HR by Suarez makes it 1-0 Arizona.

Waters with the double, 1-1.

C'mon, Royals! **** these ****ing Arizona dickheads!

Coaches should keep Bobby planted on first. I swear our coaches are far too dumb

Damn Salvy

Salvy is a DP machine tonight, hitting into his 2nd DP in as many bats. 1-1 after 3.

Salvy hitting with RISP has been very much less than ideal lately...

Goddammit Salvy, enough with the rally killers.

This game sucks.

Still waiting for that one to come down. 2-1 Arizona.

Another HR by Walker makes it 3-1.

This is turning into another hair pulling game. That AZ offense and defense is legit. And it's killing us tonight.

That would've been the 3rd DP if Marte hadn't booted it. 3-2

Isbel with the triple! 3-3

There we go! Boy we needed that! Atta boy Isbel!!!

Bottom of the lineup putting in work

Nice hit! Tie this back up!

Yeah, third inning ending DP to boot. YUCK! Happy to get a little break!

Nice heads up Isbel!!!

Wild pitch gives us the lead! 4-3

They made ol boy swap out his glove the other night because it matched his uniform but Nelson’s glove is the same red as his uniform

What am I missing? Is it because it’s red and not gray?

You got me. :shrug:

That a boy Kyle, take them anyway we can!

Damn, leadoff double!

Wacha's done, Zerpa's in.

Kansas City, and they're advertising ****ing Sweet Baby Ray's sauce behind the plate.

Shame..

Pretty good managing by Q there. Wacha struggling and a day off tomorrow, no need to play it conservative and we get out of the inning no damage done.

Zerpa needs 1 pitch to get out of the inning, 4-3 Rs.

3x Bobby on 1st….0 steal attempts. 3 double plays. I kinda hate our coaching staff.

UGH... these mutha****ing double plays... killing us.

Atta boy Zerpa. Nice work.

Nine more outs!

Ok, let's get some insurance runs here. Thanks.

I'm watching bill eigel commercials in hot springs at the casino on vacation. At least I can watch the royals but that dude is weird

Oof. That's gonna leave a mark.

I would have to call it a night after that.

Definitely a cancellation of the after game private hotel room entertainment he had scheduled...

Atta boy Long. Nice work!

Six more outs!

Yeah, I'm not a big fan of them either. Just too many stupid decisions night after night.

The ****ing Adam Frazier leading off thing is mind numbingly dumb. The guy is under a .200 BA for the season and it's not like he's been hot or anything recently. He has a .183 BA and a .239 OBP over his last 30 games. What kind of ****ing idiot rewards that incompetence by allowing him to bat lead off? We are starting off every God damn game with a for sure out.

I’m gonna ask this now so it’s not second guessing. Why not let Long face Carrol?

Agree 100%

Still 4-3 Rs starting the 8th, with it looked like Harvey coming in.

Here we go

I could manage this team better than ****ing Quasimodo.

way to go man 13 pitches and only 3 strikes

Not impressed with Harvey so far.

Diaper time again...

got lucky there that throw was way off line and he would have been safe.

Whew

Whew... Not great. But got out of it.

Three more outs!!!

Phew, that got the old heartbeat going a bit....still 4-3 to the bottom half of the 8th.

Got our thumpers coming up

What would you have done?

Ok, MacArthur on the way for 3 more outs. (Crosses fingers.)

really hope he's on because I don't like our chances of scoring in the bottom of the 9th with our 8-9 and 1 hitters due up.

**** this ump

****. Me. Talk about a makeup call.

We just got ****ED.

Should have been game there

Wtf ump?

What a horse shit call

That was strike three - wtf

Sure looked like a strike to me

Mother****er!!!!

Devastating

That'd fockin horsesh1t

1000% a game our shit coaching staff deserves to lose.

****.

Game should have been over. **** that shit

Haha **** this game
