@approxinfinity I understand this to be at least partly in jest, but has anyone else noticed how Tyler will occasionally leave the bench, right after a timeout, say, and have a quick chat with the refs? I just saw it in Austin, but one of my friends said that he had noticed Tyler doing this in other games, as well.

@brooksmd @globaljaybird @Crimsonorblue22 Thanks again for your wit and fine commentary this year! Cheers to all the other Royal Jayhawks, as well! Good night, all.

@brooksmd Who claimed Salvy #28 cathcer?!

@brooksmd Too hard to pick one from a team effort. Go with the guy who handled all of our fine pitchers! Well deserved, Salvador!

Lots of talk, Familia vs Davis–question answered decisively. WD: 4IP, 8Ks, 3-3Sv JF: 4.2IP, 3Ks, 0-3Sv

@DanR Dead silence on my Austin street. “Balm ere my eyelids close.”

Couple brothers to call–if they can hear their phones ringing!

“I’ve been a prince of Partagas for long and many’s the year.”

@VailHawk Not born!

Ha! My radio feed just died… Think I’ll know if we win though.

@Crimsonorblue22 If you insist…

@Crimsonorblue22 Near Austin–tiny private school–Latin and Literature.

It’s late and I have to teach school tomorrow–is it OK to break out a cigar now? Or should I wait for the official news?

@globaljaybird Still think it’s Escobar for the whole post-season, though.

@globaljaybird If Wade can shut things down tonight, I guess he would be a good bet.

@Eric I could make a case for Salvadore, Hosmer, Zobrist, Escobar, Davis… any others?

Don’t know why I like knocking B. Colon–I usually have a soft spot for the old guys trying to hang with the younguns–but I was really excited to see him pitch! As was Cain, obviously.

@nwhawkfan I almost flew up to visit my brother just for that–should have!

WhooooEEEEE! Esky MVP of post-season?

@Eric HIlarious!

Take it easy, folks! It’s not like I have ready a bottle of Auchentoshan or anything! Go Royals!

Wooeee!

Kids hopefully in bed for good–or they get to listen with me! This is excellent listening, by the way.

I respect what they do, but have trouble thinking of such folks, though ‘physically active and strong’ and ‘good at sports’ as athletes–could be wrong though!

@Crimsonorblue22 @wissoxfan83 are sumo wrestlers athletic? Golfers? Ping pong pros?

@wissoxfan83 What’s the deal with Reed?

C’mon bats! P.S. Eric don’t do that!

1 is OK… I hope we get to face Bartolo!

@wissoxfan83 I’m only listening tonight as well.

Let’s do it! Not at a bar tonight.

Ha! I fell asleep on the couch in the 13th! Woke up to the fireworks, though; that was nice.

Get 'em, boys!

Because they had closed, not because of rambunctiousness, by the way!

Back after being kicked out of a bar!

Go KC!

Well, shoot. At least we’ll get to close out at home. Go Ace! Impressed by Estrada, by the way; he had a great attitude towards this game; great pace (under three hours for a playoff game?), just wish he could have blown up sooner. Hear y’all next time out.

One back…

Do all umps say the location? I don’t remember it

Announcers say Volquez has the same stuff he had last time around; that’s good to hear.

Saw it!

Impressive! Bring on the scotch; maybe I’ll purchase some Bowmore (18-year) on my way home tomorrow. Thanks a bunch; y’all are fun!

All due respect to Pennington (sp?); not his fault, but c’mon, Gibbon!

Huh! I say serves them right for pitching position player; pile it on.

I wonder what the stats are for other teams? [3 to go!]

That 155-4 record when leading after 7 is insane, and difficult to believe!

Breaking out Scotch on a week-night for this!

6 to go!

8!

Great inning to walk in on. Just, lovely.

@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks!
