According to twitter, the squirrel is now trapped in the Indians bullpen.

Hopefully he gets scared and starts chewing on some pitchers

I feel like old people like Pysioc, but nobody else.

I don't mind him on the radio. When he's combined with Hudler, I can't hardly stand him

So that's the 3rd time now we've picked someone off and Ned stays in the dugout

Kidd Lex · 04-21-2014, 05:51 PM

I ****ing love baseball. I love my Royals. Something about this years team bores the shit out of me. Maybe it's the lack of the long ball, I don't know? Maybe it's Yost, Belly, or even gmdm? I like pitching duals, hell I pitched in college. I can't put my finger on it, but hopefully they become more entertaining as the season wears on.

Ftr:
I've watched damn near every pitch, and attended a couple games already

I'm going to guess it's the offense.

The appeal of his Rocky and Bullwinkle reference earlier this broadcast can't possibly extend to people below the age of 50.

Probably because you're blind? We have had guys shot dead to rights 3 times this year and Ned never said shit.
