Whre's your Seven Nation Army now?

KC wins in extras. That's been the theme. We got them right were we want them.

[Luis Taint]

Shut them the hell up

 

[MakMan44]

Nice Wade. Remember when he was the throw-in with Shields, when TB fleeced the Royals?

3 win season as a reliever. Nuts. 
 
EDIT: Wow. Nice one Gordon.

 

[strek1]

Chant to that you idiots

 

[Harry Hooper]

Darren Daye might have been a better option for Buck here.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Buck didn't have another lefty in the pen? Sidewinder righty against a left handed power guy?

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

I cannot remember a team with 5 straight playoff wins to bat their best hitter 6th.

 

[BornToRun]

What makes that nuke even more impressive, if my games of MLB The Show are any indication, is that O'day is fucking impossible to hit.

Like a dinner at Sansei...perfect

Oriole's Pitcher throws hat in anger.

...when facing a RHB. Gordon doesn't fit the profile.

I was thinking the same thing. Easy pickings.

 

[Greg29fan]

I don't think Sal Perez is going anywhere O'Day.

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Why arn't they bunting?

 

[nvalvo]

 
Yep, it's a slider/cutter, not a sinker. Davis' stuff is wicked pissah.

 
Damn.

:bravo:  BTW, Johnny A had his anniversary the other day. Thought about you.

 

[Stanley Steamer]

The psychic balance in this series is teetering right now. If the Royals manage to hold on here, essentially beating both of their late-game relievers, the have a big advantage going forward. But if the O's manage to pull this one out, they could well roll.

 

[DeJesus Built My Hotrod]

Cal getting all touchy about the Camden short porch comment.  Fuck you Ripken.  Your iron man record probably cost your team a shitton of wins.  But you played those losses the right way...

We humans just love narrative. Wanna take a crack at the S&P 500 next?

 

[nvalvo]

nevermind.

Just reminded me, thanks.  

Every single game the Royals have played these past two weeks has been great theater.  Just amazing.

 

[Greg29fan]

Maybe Matusz should have started the inning?

 

[DennyDoyle'sBoil]

Does that ball get out if it's 5 feet to the right? Close I think.

 

[FredCDobbs]

I wouldn't know what to do without those hits from Physioc.

Now that you mention it, it's a bit weird having a color commentator in the playoffs so closely linked with one of the teams. 

 

[mauidano]

Bwahahahahahahaha!!!

 

[canderson]

GEICO!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Greg29fan]

Maybe Matusz should have started the inning?

 
or not

 

[BornToRun]

This is glorious.

 

[Harry Hooper]

Ernie, you suck!

 

[Mighty Joe Young]

Well, in our broadcast we have Dave OBrien and Rick Sutcliffe .. OBrien of course is the Os announcer

 

[Apisith]

Holy fucking shit

 

[rajendra82]

Maybe Matusz should have started the inning?

 
Same result.

 

[rembrat]

Maybe Matusz should have started the inning?

 
Maybe.

 

[Bozo Texino]

This is so, so great.

 

[Al Zarilla]

Maybe Matusz should have started the inning?

Didn't matter, I guess. LOL.,

 

[Greg29fan]

Ernie Johnson is the reverse Trupe

 

[soxhop411]

Moose!!!!!

 

[Dan to Theo to Ben]

BUCK IS SAD


BUCK IS SAD

 

[curly2]

That's a tremendous job by Gordon, after being hit in the neck the time before.
 
And now Moustakas!

Joe Buck says hello.  And the suddenly slugging KC Royals say, "oh - oh, oh, oh, oh, oh"

 

[nvalvo]

Is Moustakas breaking out before our eyes?
 
Huh. 

 

[joyofsox]

I'm gonna fight 'em off ...

 

[rembrat]

That's in the park if that short wall isnt there. imjustsayincal

 

[Sprowl]

Viva Moussaka!
 

 

[mauidano]

So tell me again; the team with the least Home Runs in the AL this year is crushing it against the team with the most?
