Tangled Up in Blue

bluewindow

Royals host the Big Bad Blue Jays, baseball’s answer to the old Detroit Pistons in their assumptive arrogance. Everyone loves a bad guy so this series could be fun. Hope the Royals can pull it off. My feeling is that if anyone is going to stop the Jays they are going to come from the National League.

Never mind the bullies:

Let’s Go Ro-Yals!

Last week I was in an establishment and the two-man group played "Blue". Had to shake their hand and leave a little something. Go Royals!

2 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 7:39 pm

Let's go Royals.

3 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 16, 2015 7:51 pm

Royals with cheeese. Down with the jays.

4 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:09 pm

Ah, two runs for KC

5 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:09 pm

Great hitting by the Royals.

6 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:17 pm

I don't mind the bat flip from Bautista, I object to his acting like a brat every time a strike is called against him.

7 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:22 pm

I watch MLB network more than a normal person should. I dig listening to Harold Reynolds. He loves baseball.

8 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:22 pm

Cheese.

9 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:25 pm

[7] Yeah. He started out nervous and halting on the four letter network, but has gotten polished over the years. It's Bristol's loss.

10 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:37 pm

Go Royales!!!

[6] sounds like Fat Liar. again, though, it wasn't a bat "flip" - it was a violent *throw*. total bollocks.

[7] i do too : )

11 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:48 pm

And Bautista fakes throwing a ball into the stands. What an asshole.

12 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:51 pm

nice uncle charlie!

13 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:54 pm

damn. lost him.

ok. get this fucking fuck fuck to ground into a double play.

strike one.

14 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:55 pm

i'm surprised he didn't complain that the foul ball counts as a strike.

15 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 8:59 pm

another full count. they're making him work this frame...

16 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:01 pm

lost him.

E2 better not tie the game.

need a DP here...

17 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:04 pm

sit the fuck down!

that was a STRIKE!!!

now, the DP.

18 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:04 pm

[7][9] wasn't HR involved in some kind of off-the-field controversy in Bristol?

19 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:07 pm

DP please

20 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:11 pm

2 outs.

let him finish this frame.

21 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:12 pm

[18] An alleged hugging that was later called an inappropriate touching, details are hazy. And bigger names at that place got away with worse, allegedly, so I'm giving Harold a pass. Look how long Bristol stuck with a complete asshole in Oberman.

22 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:13 pm

ooh, lucky call on that pitch.

23 rbj   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:17 pm

Yes

24 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:17 pm

Eddie's Comin' Out Tonight!!!

going through the heart of the order a third time was a bear, but he threw 6 scoreless. impressivo!

25 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:18 pm

[21] yeah, that sounds familiar.

i remember Berman's "you're with me, leather" controversy. now, erin andrews is seeking $75 million for her peeping tom incident.

26 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:19 pm

he threw 37 pitches that inning.

i guess it'll be:
7th - madson
8th - herrera
9th - davis

27 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:25 pm

E5

make them pay!

28 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:26 pm

nice hit.

stay out of the DP, score another run (at least).

29 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:30 pm

wow. moose is super fucking slow.

dammit. maybe that was worth a review...

30 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:33 pm

i still think that dp was worth a review...

31 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:34 pm

throwin' smoke.

32 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:36 pm

That was a nice DP.

33 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:36 pm

Man, this dude can dial it up.

34 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:37 pm

holy crap. 9 pitches = 3 outs.

35 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:47 pm

6 outs to go, bottom of the order coming up.

36 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:51 pm

5 outs.

37 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:52 pm

oh, wait. top of the order. damn.

ouchie on sals' fingers/hand.

38 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:54 pm

apparently, EE is hurt.

i'm surprised Coltrane isn't getting an at-bat...

ok, get this fucking joker to ground into a dp.

39 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:56 pm

sal's hand is hurting bad. that's not good.

40 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:57 pm

crap. another walk for bow-teest-uh. at least he fell on his keister.

definitely need the dp now.

41 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:58 pm

[40] of course, he was acting and didn't need to hit dirt...

throw strikes, madson.

42 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 9:58 pm

nice. 2 outs!!

43 Ara Just Fair   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:01 pm

Good.

44 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:01 pm

sweet!

3 outs to go...

45 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:10 pm

damn. nice rip. i thought it was going out and that it would've scored two for sure. i guess he hit it too hard.

plate both of these guys and save davis for tomorrow.

46 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:11 pm

5-0 !!!

47 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:12 pm

Nice.

48 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:19 pm

i would've rested perez from catching the bottom of the 9th.

oh, moose. E5

49 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:21 pm

wow. really nice play. got the lead runner.

2 outs.

50 thelarmis   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:22 pm

blow jays lose!!!

51 Alex Belth   ~  Oct 16, 2015 10:25 pm

Strong win for the Royals. Needed to win this one especially with Price and Strohman yet to pitch.
