****Official Royals Vs. Whitesox 9/17 Gamethread****
 

ALnorth didn't start one, and well, **** Bruiser.

I'll take one for the team. Sale Vs Ventura. I actually think we win this. We'll scratch a couple runs across and hopefully work Sale's count to get him out in the 6th

A GAME THREAD AT 12:17 - ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME??????

Just like Jason Biggs in American Pie, we came early. I wish we could switch up the last two months.

chris sale :(

We need to pull out a rabbit in the worst possible way or today could be the last day of the season that we are a playoff team.

Go **** yourself

WC still in play if we lose but this is a must win to have a shot at the division(a long shot at that). Only the homerest of homers would think we will sweep Detroit. Win tomorrow, some how take 2 of 3 over the weekend and hope like hell to catch some breaks over the last week.

So, pretty sure after Nori's game tonight, he will have the same if not better OPS than Billy Butler, even with his one and only home run. I think the most troubling part about Billy is his lack of pitch recognition this year. I really don't think it's his bat speed. I think something is just going on in his mind, and he can't get right.

He had 580 abs last year, 79 walks. 520 abs this year, 39 walks. We have seen Butler swinging at pitches all over the place this year, not like he is known to do.

Not a chance.....

Wheres the Wade Davis hate thread?

In?

Out

I don't think the division is happening but if we go 3-1 in the next four we will be pretty comfortable in our wildcard position.

In.

In for another ChiSox win!

Kindly GFY. TIA!:evil:

****ing in

Weren't you the worthless turd who ran for the hills and hid after the Royals came back Monday night? Could you be a bigger turd?

Hide? Nope I've been playing destiny and checking in. **** you bitch.

Nope, you're a worthless turd. You were cheering against the Royals (on a KC fan board no less) which is really lame since your team sucks balls - but you mysteriously vanished when the rally started.


People who talk shit then run for the hills are turds. You didn't post one time after the 8th inning of that game for a reason.

In for a glimmer of hope.

1 Escobar SS,
2 Aoki RF,
3 Cain CF,
4 Willingham DH,
5 Gordon LF,
6 Perez C,
7 Butler 1B
8 Infante 2B,
9 Nix 3B

Can we start a gofundme for Gio to get an AB?

I was playing destiny and forgot about the game because I could care less right now. **** off man. I don't care. Well be good next year when we add to our roster and stay healthy. I root for the white sox. You can go look at posts I wish y'all luck and hope you do well. Go look in the royals 2014 repository. This year was a growth and development year for us. Better worry about not choking instead of ****ing with me.

Willy and Butler in the same lineup? That's what speed don't?:spock:

Please god no.

Too late.

In for the series win!

Go Royals!

Which sucks because id like to see the royals do well because I'm a chiefs fan.

ROFL

Wow

You can't make shit like this up. Yosted.

That may be the best, funniest, and most accurate thing Ned has ever said.

Phenomenal.

Holy shit...maybe hes not profoundly reeruned.





I have an erection.

Nah. He's still reeruned. Even a brain dead toad could identify the god awful plate discipline of this team.

I remember telling SAUTO at the beginning of the season that this would be a great year to be a Royals fan. They would be the only team in the division to challenge Detroit.

If the Sox can't do it, I prefer the Royals. I lived in KC in the 80s and went to several games in '85, so I get a little honorary fan card.

As far as tonight goes, very simple. Get to the bullpen=Royals win. I am a Sox fan pulling for a Royals win tonight.

No more Tigers.

Dinny

So....,

Sox 4
Royals 0

Gigantic game. I think this the first time in a long time that the Royals could be outside of the playoffs at the end of the night.

Not when we win MOTHER****ER!

Yeah, that worked well for the Royals last night.

Moose and Hos would have no shot against Sale. Gordon will probably K 3x's against him. He's that deadly against lefties. He has yet to give up an Earned Run to a lefty and they are hitting .149 against him.:(

I think you have to play these last 11 games like each one is do or die. I know that sounds ridiculous, but we can't drop this game tonight.

Oh, and **** Mr. Invincible, Adam Eaton. That guy is absolutely shredding us.

Good start for Ventura, minus the walk. Abreu, GONE!

Adam Eaton's OPS against the Royals is .955

watched a meatball right down the middle

AOKI DOKIE PBJ PBJ PBJ

White hot Nori!

Cain has been worthless lately

**** YOU GORDON

That might be the extent of our damage against Sale tonight. Keep running his pitch count up and let's get him out of here by the 7th inning.

Cain wanted to be a hero, pops out first pitch. POS


Gordon then decided he wanted to be the hero. 3-1 count and he just can't wait, grounds out. What's wrong with taking another pitch? What's wrong trying to get a walk, driving up Sale's pitch count, and turning it over to a RH batter with the bases loaded?


Our plate approach is a disgrace. And it's why we won't go to the playoffs.

Fever has been waiting all year for a pop up to the pitcher so he could go on that video prepped rant.

And how many times is he going to bring up Hud calling the moon a planet? It's a weekly occurrence with that story!

And Sal......The F.

3-2 Twins

TORA! TORA! TORA!

Think those dudes know that flag is Japan's war flag from WWII?

IT'S TIME TO WAKE UP

Nice stop, would've been nice to get the out though.

Here comes the self-destruction inning where we lose it

Aoki stepping up under the pressure

rest of the team taking a dump

That was scary.

Someone needs to teach Ventura how to get his lower half into his throwing motion....

This is the Ballgame right here. Give up more than 1 run, and we are done.

Damn, scary!

Now they are full!

Does anyone else enjoy HUD? I'll admit, his goofy charm has grown on me and cracks me up sometimes.

BRING IN WADE DAVIS/ Hootie

It starts

Sal dropped it

FFS sake, Sal!

He made it close!

The Sal as a Yank comment was stupidity, but I think he does a very good job in mixing in relevant baseball commentary with the game at hand as well as the off-beat and stuff that isn't related to the game on the diamond.

And he seems to really like kids.. Hope to God he doesn't turn out to be the Fox Sports Network equivalent to Jimmy Saville.

He hangs onto and he shoots the runner going to 3rd

Ace is all over the place!

Yordano has been wild as shit this inning

Detroit is up 4-3 now.:shake:

Impressive

I'm done with DET. That deal is done. We've ****ed away too many opportunities to catch them. We are going to be struggling to get the last WC Spot.
