In for sole possession of 1st place!

I am in love with the 3-1 slider for a strike there.

Whit's hitting streak continues.

Another hit for Whit.

WHIT!!

2 pitches, 2 hits, 1 run scored!

1-0 Royals

Mondesi!!

Well, that escalated quickly....

What a start.

These ain’t your last years Royals

No chance of throwing him out.

Easy stolen base for Mondesi.

That escalated quickly

Yeah, small sample size, but not much changed for Alex.

Y'all think Mitch Maier be the Royals next manager after Yost?

Wrong MM.

It's going to be ****ing Matheny.

Ibanez

Owings really sucks.

I literally hate Owings with a passion

Chris Owingetz

Kauffman looks like a ghost town

hmmm...No shit?

in terms of Matheny...I really hope not.

I get Owings being on the team, but he shouldn't be treated like an everyday player. Anytime Whit can play second base, he should play ****ing second base.

Owings needs to be a shitty back up utility guy. Not take at bats away from other guys in the OF (which he does when he plays 2B and forces Whit to the OF).

Maldonado really....

I am here for Brad Keller's slider.

In it to win it.

Throw strikes, Keller.

Great job owings

Mondesi on fire

Why do people throw fastballs and strikes to Mondesi? He hammers the **** out of a fastball.

Mondesi has the two hardest hit balls of the game.

105.4 first time up and 107.6 just now.

Mondesi is going to win an MVP before his career is over.

Yeah, so I doubt it. He has a window if Trout & Betts ever die, but that is about it.

Throw strikes, Brad.

Bad defense.

Lazy ****ing Mondesi there. They both kind of ****ed up though. Just throw it home Gordon and you nail him most of the time. Mondesi way more though.

Sloppy defensive communication and effort.

That's ****ing inexcusable. How is no one telling Mondesi "4" ?

Really... Gordon you could’ve nailed him

lazy ass defense there

That's an all-around defensive letdown there. Not just Mondesi.

Wow. Why no urgency on getting the ball in there?

The ball was about at the exact same cut off spot on the Gordon vs Mad Bum world series.

Crawford had the ball when Gordon was 2 steps around third. He would’ve been nailed

There goes our dream of a 0.00 ERA season for Keller. Thanks, defense.

Owings triple!

Owings doesn’t suck!

CHRIS OWINGS FOREVER

Ned needs to chew some ass amirite?

What the **** are you doing Martin?

Good job Dozier

LMAO at Maldonado's slow ass.

LOL. Maldonado forgot he was a catcher.

But... Why?

:facepalm:

Way to take over the game Owings. :clap:

Maldonado I appreciate the effort but just stay at first next time

That's what speed.... wait :bolt:

That was some, uh, aggressive baserunning.

Yes. PROBABLY.

Unless it was a bad throw. Salvy was hitting next. I would’ve taken my chance and stayed at third

Hitting a loose jersey being a HBP is beyond stupid.

Looks like Keller got some control issues today.

Salvy's chance at getting a hit against the Mad Bum that game was probably 15-20%. Which is about the same as Gordon scoring. So it really doesn't matter what we would have done.

Keller nooooo

Using his slider way too much.

Well, shit.

Keller what in the hell were you thinking there?

Why throw a strike on 3-0 to Cruz.... JFC

so stupid

Keller you’re a dumbass

Score some runs here
