LFG!

Massey at cleanup, huh? Interesting.

And that's a stat - the '24 team is the most winningest team the Royals have fielded in the last 35 years to this point in the season? Whoa.

Is Gaby still there?

Here's to keeping rolling to a HOME playoff series! :toast: LFG!!

FYP

Man what a fricking Sunday

Meaningful Royals baseball on at 10:35am then an afternoon Chiefs/Bengals game

Here's to both teams handling business today

This will be on my 55” TV with redzone on the 85”. God I love football season and royals in the playoff hunt

Appreciate the assist (I knew what I was trying to say, lol)

It's an odd feeling, right??

Vicodin, Valium and vodka for the win!

LFG

ROFL

putting sweep in the thread title is usually bad juju. I'll still be hoping for a win though. What does everyone think do we want Detroit to win today to get within a game of Baltimore or do we want the Tigers to lose. I kinda feel like it's better to get within 1 of Baltimore to try and get home games in the first round.

Obviously I'd prefer to win the division but that's going to be difficult with so few games remaining.

He dropped in, claimed a game 1 W, ****ed some bitches...and then took his car phone holder/CD player combo and high tailed it outta there.

'The city was one giant brothel': Pittsburgh's history of sex work
</a>

I now understand why scho63 is so fond of the Pittsburgh of his yesteryear. Fun place.

Y'all can pummel me at the GBS if it backfires.

2 batters, 2 hits for Pirates. 1-0 Pittsburgh

nice bounce back.

This better be a crooked number incoming.

Bases juiced, no outs.

Gurriel with the SF fly tied up 1-1

Nice sac fly, I have -0- confidence in Garcia to do anything productive.

Backwards K

MFer Maikel

Squandered opportunity

Oof, should have gotten more than 1 there

Eh, this fireball pitcher has got over 40 pitches in 2 IP. Just keep it up, and get him outta there.

Great INT by Warner.

Just to let you know. :facepalm:

Leadoff triple for Pham!

Lead off triple for Pham. Score some runs fellas!

Pham punched out at home

Guess it's fitting on Clemente day a Pirates RF throws a laser to the plate.

Royals challenging

Looks clean to me

Royals are challenging. I’m not watchin on TV.

Safe or out?

Challenged and lost it.

Why send Phan like that?

Especially with the follow up singles by Perez and Massey.

Good Lord

for those not watching, they challenged that the catcher was blocking the plate. Grey area challenge. The throw from the RF was absolutely perfect and he was clearly out.

RFer was moving towards the line and made a great throw but that wasn’t a close play at home

Pissing away opportunities so far. Bases loaded no outs, followed by lead off triple the next inning. A measly one run to show for it.

Man this game should be well in our hands and it’s tied instead

Cruz on his ass in the outfield again. LMAO

Cruz is an extra base machine......for us. LMAO

Garcia with the RBI double, 2-1 Rs

Hampson has got to get this run in

Nice to finally have a team that lets other teams make the mistakes and destroy themselves.

Let’s go Pham

90 pitches for Jones. Blast this thing open.

Jones won't come out for the 5th with 97 pitches under his belt. Bring on their bullpen, and quit screwing around.

The Royal are leaving too many runs on the bases today which I am afraid are going to come back to bite them in the butt.

I really can't understand why the Royals keep refusing to try a squeeze with the bottom of the lineup and a guy on third.

Slow roller for an RBI, tied at 2-2

Felt like he maybe could have gotten that to home plate to prevent the run...

Good thing the Pirates are also inefficient with scoring opportunities.

Nice throw Hampson. :shake:

Bobby's relay throw home was even worse.

Dammit Brady!

Well, as far as I'm concerned, Brady, you just earned yourself a bullpen designation for the playoffs. 4-2 Pirates after walking 3 batters and walking in a run.

Detroit beat Baltimore.

come on pham

Score some damned runs. Bases loaded one out.

come on guys we need a clutch hit here

Come on BWJ. Be him.

4-3 with the bases loaded walk. Come on Salvy!

Just not capitalizing whatsoever

We should have at least 6 runs today.

Is that double digit LOB now? JFC.....

Yes

Great catch Isbel! Hampson wouldn't have come close to that.

Alright, trailing 4-3, it's time for MOAR runs!!

Massey lead off double!

Anyone have a stream?

Putrid with RISP. Just awful.

getting plenty of hits with nobody on base but then just absolutely nothing when they get in scoring position. dang it.

Kinda bullshit strike call against Garcia

Yeah, the one he called a ball was better than the one he called a strike.

Bummer.

It was going to be tough anyway but that probably does it for the Central

Probably, but Baltimore is still in play. 2 GB

Too many runs left on base today...
