Baseball 2024

I saw that injury. I can't imagine how badly that hurt. I bet it's not a small injury either.

Yeah, it didn't look good. Shoulders and arms don't bend and flop around like that normally.

 

[olbriar]

Grand damn slam ouch!

 

[Clementine_3]

This ain't a pretty game no matter how you slice it.

 

[olbriar]

And as start to type we let them score again. The game will be pretty enough if we can pull off a W.

 

[olbriar]

Root hard Clem. I've got to hit the sack. Good luck!

 

[Clementine_3]

'night!
Crazy game but they pulled off the win.

Good read. It will be interesting as negotiations get down and ugly.

The Royals haven't lost a game since I posted they were 4-4. They have put together a six game winning streak and are currently 8-4. That is no indication they will have a great season but at least shows they can win and can be entertaining to watch. I'm happy for them. If they had put together a competitive team last year they might have had a better chance of Jackson Co. voting yes for the sales tax increase for the new downtown stadium.

Yesterday the Royals finished their sweep of the Astros to improve their record to 9-4 with a seven game winning streak but who's counting? I read that they had a seven game streak last year... man I missed it. At the very least, my team is worthy of watching for a change. I'm rooting for them instead of making fun of them this year. Today they start an away series against the Mets.

I had a feeling this could happen with the thin see through pants

The Royals went down quietly in the opening game with the Mets.

 

[AugieTN]

The ads on Baseball uniforms are really starting to bug me

 

[olbriar]

The Royals won today though I missed the game. The wife swears they only lose when I watch them.
If there is another way to squeeze a buck out of the baseball fan it's immediately implemented. It's like the super imposed commercial on the mound. When I first saw it, it freaked me out. The Royals are sporting a QT patch this year. I wonder just how many bucks the Quick Trip franchise had to pay for that? It isn't distracting but I will admit that I saw the additional patch.

 

[olbriar]

Please take note that the Cleveland Guardians just lost to the Yanks and now have a record of 9-5. Unless my math has failed me, the Royals record is 10-5 putting them on top of the American Central and two games behind the Yanks in the American League. Highly unusual to say the least.

 

[Clementine_3]

Boston is riddled with injuries and they are just beating themselves in spectacular fashion now. The amount of errors and unearned runs is truly staggering but they did manage a win today. It may be a long session.

 

[olbriar]

Injuries benches talent but also messes with a teams mojo. I hope they can adjust while they are recovering.

 

[olbriar]

I would have never thought the Royals would lose another game.

 

[olbriar]

Through 17 games... last year 4-13 and this year 11-6. Not great but definitely improved.

 

[olbriar]

Yesterday, the Royals - White Sox game was postponed. They played this afternoon and the Sox won
2-1. Not trying to slam the White Sox but today was their third win. I thought the Royals might take the game but you can't win them all.

 

[Clementine_3]

3 unearned runs, 2 errors in today's loss to the Guardians. 20 errors and 26 unearned runs in the 20 games played so far. So many injuries and so much just plain bad baseball playing going on. Not sure it's Boston's year.

 

[olbriar]

Boston looked good tonight beating the Pirates 4-2. I'm afraid the Royals lost tonight at home against the Orioles 7-9. It was looking bad most of the game. The Orioles put up 7 in the top of the second and the Royals were 0-fers until the bottom of the sixth. I was glad to see them at least try to battle back.

 

[olbriar]

Naturally, the Royals lost again today. They never really threatened to score a run. Just another sad day of baseball.

 

[olbriar]

It seems it doesn't matter who the Royals play or if they are home or away. They suck.

 

[olbriar]

By some freak of nature, the Royals won tonight. San Diego is down 3 after 6 and Baltimore is down 7 after 4. Both are visiting.
