I can't understand a word he says but he's a beautiful human being and one helluva ball player.

I don't think we agree with what mowing people down means. He gave up 5 extra base hits with 3 HR. We were just lucky no one was on base.

@goldbergkc
#Royals place closer Greg Holland on the 15-day DL w/a right pectoral strain. Recall RHP Yohan Pino

God damnit

On a brighter note, they say Alcides may play tonight.

Vahe Gregorian @vgregorian
Escobar says he indeed considered Lawrie's slide dirty and notes he has not heard from him. Also says initially thought had broken his leg

oh no sir. we must retaliate.

j-dub · « **Reply #33289 on:** April 18, 2015, 03:20:01 PM »

lets throw at his effing head. right at it.

wetwillie · « **Reply #33290 on:** April 18, 2015, 03:20:22 PM »

I dont think ive ever witnessed back to back home runs live before. It was very traumatic.

slobber · « **Reply #33291 on:** April 18, 2015, 03:20:43 PM »

Hit him in the balls.

Gonna win 'em all!

j-dub · « **Reply #33292 on:** April 18, 2015, 03:21:46 PM »

it's kind of a miracle that we regained the momentum. we are v v good at baseball

I think it would ease my nerves a bit if Gordon hit one in the fountains and the like threw some dork* out at home. All this injury stuff has me tense.

*what if it was Billy?

joda · « **Reply #33296 on:** April 18, 2015, 04:07:16 PM »

Hopefully Holland is just a minor strain that they want him to rest. If that's the case I'm not too worried as we still have HD and Frasor.

Lawrie absolutely deserves a Ventura fastball right between the 'blades. It was a dirty slide at a point where doing so hurt his team and he's shown absolutely no remorse about it.

Susan Slusser @susanslusser
Lawrie did text Escobar last night and got a response. He showed it to me. Heartfelt apology for the injury to Escobar and (cont)

@susanslusser
(Cont) Escobar responded in Spanish: "That's stupid, you did it on purpose."

Hell yeah Alcedes. If we don't hit this guy I'm gonna go bananas.

KC PR man extraordinaire Mike Swanson double checked with Escobar, who says he never got a text from Lawrie, showed Swanson his phone.

Hes going to get thrown at right? I mean I think im going to be angry if it doesnt happen.
