@brooksmd Ok I migrated us to another server with the latest and greatest board software on it. We lost the last couple messages but I figured it wasn’t a big deal as no one’s really on, so I went ahead with the move. Should be straight now.
-
sweet win by the Royals!

@bskeet Hope theres plenty in the whoopass jar for 2 more games.
From foxsportskc,com:
“Friday night, Young took the ball in another spot start, dazzling again across 5 2/3 innings of one-run ball. He struck out two and limited the New York bats to just four hits. In his three starts this season, Young owns a 0.54 ERA, the only earned run he’s allowed coming during Friday’s fourth inning. His overall ERA jumped from a miniscule 0.78 to a slightly less miniscule 0.94. Opponents have collected just 11 hits off the right-hander. They are managing a .113 batting average against Young.”
These are the best stats of ANY starter for KC this season. This may turn out to be Dayton Moore’s best move this year, however Kendrys Morales has swiftly made a memory of Billy Butler, & the committee in right has said adios to Aoki Doki just as quickly. Go bash the Bombers again men, this is fun to watch & the whole weekend is a virtual sellout even with krappy weather, like last week vs Detroit. Mr K is smiling down once again guys, keep loose the MOOSE !!

@globaljaybird Absolutely a joy to watch Young again last night. And when the boys broke loose with the wood it was like a merry-go-round. Loved every minute. If the will of the crowd last nite could have had an effect on that fourth hit by Moose that damn thing would’ve sailed over the wall rather than bouncing off of it. And I think if Cain and Orlando had more experience with each other, Cain would’ve had that deep fly that led to the Yanks only run. Cain looked like he pulled up to see what Orlando was doing. But like you I just hope they left plenty in the jar for the next 2 games.

Duffy comes back out to the mound tonight, hope he can find some control of his pitches and break this little slump.
