š ROYALS vs šÆ game 3
-
Want to get this thread out early cause Iāll again be on & off. This may be the last game thread I can join for a few days going forward. Wedding
in KC next weekend & wifeys Mother had 
ļø surgery 2 hours ago. Donāt know about you but sports can sometimes make all the insanity bear 
able for me if only temporarily.
The Tribe aināt goin away without a battle so can we just get out da broom for 8 straight in the Motor City? KC firing on all cylinders right now so my $$$ are on the guys in ROYAL 
BLue. Also may have to get tickets for KC vs Cleveland Aug 18th I believe, for University Night at Kauffman Stadium with our beloved JAYHAWKS!
Sounds PDG to me.
Play ball!
-
@globaljaybird Iāll be around.
-
@globaljaybird howād the surgery go? Sheās been fighting for awhile huh?
-
Moose is hitting base hits
-
@Crimsonorblue22 sorry not much for a chat partner.
-
@globaljaybird howās the mom in law?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes shes been fighting. Was little over a year ago when they determinined the Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia lymphoma & thyroid cancer. Wife said her appetite is surging shortly after surgery. That is a wonderful sign. All but one of her 6 children are there so that is giving her more courage. Last 2 years since Dadās been gone she has struggled dearly.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Angels just tied Cleveland top of 7th.
-
@globaljaybird G-baby just went home so Iām here. I did take her cartoon time away at game time, but not sure she picked up any pointers watching the game.
-
@globaljaybird I wonāt be switching and rooting for the Angels like I did last nite. Bot of the 11th reminded me of some of our early season games.
-
Some Detroit players are just mailing it in right now. I wouldāve fined Upton for dog assing that run at the plate last nigh & that pitcher couldāve cared less about covering the bag for Cabrera. Flippin shame with the kind of living MLB supplies those guys. Ya think theyād be more grateful & put out their best efforts all the time. 9 games out is not a death sentence-KC was that far back themselves. But since JD Martinez was traded it looks like some of those guys have just given up. Hope theyāre the next ones to get traded-to the Giants, or the Reds, or the Philliesā¦
-
Good to see the boys put 5 on the board without the long ball. Although suppose you could almost classify Eskys as a almost long ball.
-
@brooksmd 8-1 time for Rascal to water the treeā¦
-
Drew a good solid back to basics backup catcher.
-
Keep the line moving boys. Love me some Whit.
-
HOZ GRAND SALAMI KABOOM!!!
-
Det fans calling it game, set, match.
-
@globaljaybird did you see it or were you still watchin Rascal whizzing?
-
@brooksmd you definitely have a man crush on 3 hit whit
-
Do we have a back up for drew?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Iād buy him a couple of
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Wouldnāt surprise me if Whit put on the pads.
-
@brooksmd Nope was down the streetā¦
-
Whoa guys!!
-
Alright settle down. Forget the runner at 3rd now an tcb.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Hows that?
-
Much better, looked like lil league
-
@Crimsonorblue22 t-ball
-
On the subject of catchers, http://ftw.usatoday.com/2017/06/oklahoma-softball-pitcher-knocks-over-royals-catcher-while-warming-up-for-first-pitch
-
That was cool! Drew a good sport and showed her much respect!
-
I like drew. He seems to be a fun guy.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Now they must remain fully focused & not have any injuries. We may have 8 straight but the Tribe has at least 5 in a row too. Time for some new guys to get their feet wet.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Cam Gallagher, C, Omaha, ba .296, 5 hr, not a speedster like Salvy as he has no SBās.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Call Hud and ask him if Salvy an Drew went down during a game who is next.
-
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Goldberg & Montgomery are linkedin connections but Hudās not on there-at least not under that name.
-
Whit wants a cookie-nahā¦
-
Soooo my friend called while the moose thing happened. Did he get thrown out?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Nope but Rondon did. Maybe get a day off for pushin an ump. Hopefully Moose doesnāt get scalded a game or so for being so colorful. You didnātā need to be much of a lip reader to get his spiel when he started walking towards the mound. Clearly Moose has a lot more to loose than some part time relief pitcher. I know Maurer came in throwin BBās at 99 mph !! I can dig that.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 No. The pitcher got tossed as soon as he hit Moose but he hung around to try an toss an ump down to get more suspension time.
-
@globaljaybird Who was the bald headed Royals dude that got in front of Moose to take on Rondon?
-
2brooksmd Still 2 back with a rest day on Thurs. Vargas vs Price in Fenway at 7:10 Friday. Will try to hang out some if I can. GN & keep the sunny side up. Pretty sure that was Duffy. I did a double take myself.
-
Thx! I knew moose didnāt. Rewinded to see again. Missed the lil ump getting thrown around. Guess heās not a popular guy. Is this our first fight w/out ace? Miss the crazy fun dude! Duff was poād
-
Danny Duffy on Rondon: āIf he doesnāt want to compete in a situation thatās not sexy, they should just send his ass home."
-
@globaljaybird Good for standing up for teammate but asinine stunt by Duffy.
-
@globaljaybird Actually 1.5 back but I know you look at losses only.
-
@brooksmd I donāt think duff would have done anything.
-
@brooksmd Yeah thatās true, but Duffy has to use his head for more than a hat
rack. @Crimsonorblue22 . I also thought of Ace but more than just tonight. These young guys that were all crazy 
kids together a few years ago are coming of age as men & many will soon go their own way in life. Thereās no boo 
hooing now & theyāre still having a ball 
ļø winning . Thatāll heal a lot of hurt. Just makes it sad to think this run may be coming to an end. Guess Iām getting soft in my old age. On the rebound. GN
-
@globaljaybird I hate to think about it. Will ruin it for me! Hope we can keep most of them.
-
@globaljaybird FA ruined the game. I hear these guys say they need to make sure their families are provided for. How many millions does it take? Iām doing just fine and I didnāt inherit millions of dollars. My kids will probably inherit more than I did when my wife an I are gone, but it sure as hell wonāt be millions.
-
@brooksmd I like the game much better with FA! Enables teams to rebuild faster and enhances competition. Dynasties are shorter.
Of course, I lived through the last years of the KC Aās disaster.
And, frankly, I love it when they get paid a lot. Remember, many are earning under minimum wage in the minors. When someone hits it big, it keeps the attention of some who might give up. Even Whit was discouraged a couple years ago, but his parents kept him going. You need a steady supply of bb players to find the 1 to 5 % who can make it in the Show.
@globaljaybird Donāt think anyone wants to go sign with the Giants this yearā¦
