Hey pal, we’re not Baastun. 😉

[oblong]

first game I'll attend since opening day which makes it all real now.

Olson is not the guy I would like to be on the mound to stop this mini skid.

I would say that KC is our biggest rival for the division. Cleveland is good but KC scares me more. Bobby Witt Jr. is the real deal.

Olson, Jobe, Mize and Skubal in this 4 game series. I'm more worried about our hitting than I am about our SP.

[IdahoBert]

I’m mostly worried about Riley, but I think he will self correct. I remember during the reign of Dave Dombrowski how we had a plethora of great hitters in the lineup and they would all go inexplicably blank for several games in a row. This stuff just happens and the scales will swing the other way before long.

[Klondike]

That's why it's important to have no weak spots in the line-up. There will be one or two hitters slumping all the time.

So since they’ve only scored one run in the last 22 innings have they “saved up some runs” over the last 22 innings in their metaphysical bank of runs which they often squander in high scoring games? Or if you want to get more scientific about it, could they “return to the mean” of scoring a sensible number of runs and hopefully allow fewer than they score?

6 runs. Book it. 😆

Ok which one of these 6-9 no name Royal hitters is gonna torch us out of nowhere this series?

[IdahoBert]

2 batters faced both make it on….

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

not a bad recovery

[monkeytargets39]

Remember when everyone inexplicably threw high fastballs to Carpenter even though he was destroying them every time?  Now that has all shifted to pitches low and in.

[monkeytargets39]

Does the Rally House commercial song annoy anyone else?

 

specifically when they rhyme ‘house’ with ‘house’

[romad1]

Riley Greene's slump is the weirdest and most unexpected thing.

[Tigermojo]

Dingler is on fire.

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Keith sure isn't.

[Tigermojo]

Runs plural!

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Tork 2-bagger! McKinstry scores from 1st.

[IdahoBert]

Tork 2-run double

[monkeytargets39]

TORQUE DOUBLE

[Tigermojo]

Riley hit!

[Crazy Cat Gentleman]

Riley! Tork scores.
