ChiSox vs Royals -- Game 1
-
Covey vs Vargas. Will the Royals go for 10 in a row? Will the pitching and hitting work together tonite? If somebody gives me the Royals and 10 I might take it.
-
Well give credit to Hos for trying to take it to lf against the shift, but it still went directly to the only infielder playing between 2nd and 3rd for inning ending dp.
-
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Forgive me if I don’t hold my breath.
-
Looks a little cool in KC tonite.
-
@brooksmd dang McDonald’s mom needs to change up their shirts!
-
Heard a little rumor that the Nats might be interested in Cain
-
With hang time and misplay, Esky should’ve been standing on 3rd.
-
@approxinfinity Whataya got for cash and trade?
-
Hos would’ve scored from 3rd on that play.
-
With 1 out, runner on 3rd, against a pitcher with almost a 7 era, and the inning ended with the runner still standing on 3rd.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Didn’t see shirt.
-
Off to the concession stand for a couple of dogs with kraut and a beer.
-
@brooksmd decent write up on what me might deal from the farm for Cain and Herrera: https://kingsofkauffman.com/2017/05/01/kc-royals-nationals-lorenzo-cain/
-
I’ve seen most of these guys in limited capacity in the bigs or in Double A. Stevenson was a beast every time I saw him but that was mostly in double A. None of the others had enough run to jar loose a crisp memory.
-
@approxinfinity can’t have him! I’d have to give u the shirt I have on.
-
@brooksmd u haven’t seen the Mickey d commercial? Probably a local thing. Mom says he has to wear his royals shirt again to protect the streak. Ha ha dble plays get u a dble burger for a buck the next day at kc and Lawrence mcd’s
-
@Crimsonorblue22 but supposing we do pry a couple Royals loose you are welcome to root for the Nats. Call Nationals Park Kauffman East if you like.
-
We r winning!
-
2-out 2 run homer. Yes!
-
Monster lf shot by Bonifacio with Gordo on. 432 ft. Royals 2 - 1 after 4
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah, local Micky D’s thing.
-
@DanR get us more!
-
@approxinfinity Not being familiar with any of them I’d have to take your word for it. And the writer’s word.
-
@DanR I wouldn’t get to excited yet. Maybe if still leading, top of the 9th, nobody on, 2 outs and o-2 count.
-
Esky very efficient tonite. 2 pitches and 2 hits.
-
@approxinfinity You want Hosmer too?
-
Lucky break for the Royals with the bases loaded, 2 outs and Salvy bounces one hard off 3rd base scoring 2. Royals 4 - 1
-
@brooksmd ouch. He’s a career .276 hitter. No bounce back on the horizon?
-
Think he’s a soon to be FA.
-
Looks like we’re helping out with your 2 out scoring problems.
-
@approxinfinity Yeah, this winter he’s a FA and just read where there currently isn’t much agreement on a new contract. Too bad they can’t fire Gordo and give his contract to Hos.
-
@wissox Those last 2 were due to bad luck for the Sox and good luck for the Royals. Would’ve been easy out if ball hadn’t hit the bag.
-
@brooksmd hitting the base still counts!️
-
@brooksmd give it to Cain train
-
@brooksmd Didn’t see it, heard the description. Just as the announcer said the Royals hadn’t had a bases loaded hit all season, boom!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I know. Like I said, bad luck for Sox and good luck for R’s cause Salvy would’ve been an easy 3rd out as hard as it was hit.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Is that the ball that Rio got ahold of?
-
-
Oh man! Catcher looked bad there!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He aint a catcher, he a dropper
-
@wissox probably be seeing replays of that drop!
-
Hos with a 2 out 2 run dinger.
-
@brooksmd hoz!
-
Goodnite Mr Covey, it was nice playing against ya.
-
-
@brooksmd I got tickets for Paul McCartney today. I’m very very excited! I love the Beatles and he is my fav!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Unfortunately right now the pitcher is probably reminding the catcher the inning would have been over before the 2 out homer if he’d made that catch.
-
Sorry I a is doing better!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Liked the early Beatles until they went weird. Just like the Beach Boys. Loved them until Brian Wilson destroyed 3/4ths of his brain cells.
-
@DanR Okay, I feel pretty good that you can get excited now.
