Hos comes through in the clutch. He's looking better the last 10 days or so.

Seems like everyone not called Moose has.

True. Looks like he'll get another chance this inning in a key situation. Damn.

Oops...guess not. Tejada for Moose...
Probably for the best.

Getting pinch hit for is a pretty big blow to an ego, especially when you play a position that is typically relied upon for offense. If it's at that point with Moose, you might as well send him down and hopefully he can find his swing again and get his confidence where it needs to be. Dude looks pretty down most of the time. (Kinnda reminds me of Gordon when he was sucking balls. At least Moose is pretty solid defensively and younger than Alex was...)

Definitely an ego blow with the bases loaded and no one out. Ned clearly feared a double play starting at the plate or even a triple play, and clearly has little, or no, confidence in Moose.

Royals, F yeah!

Also what the f was escobar doing bunting???

kstate16 · « **Reply #4685 on:** June 17, 2013, 09:07:51 PM »

Playing Tejada or hell even Johnson gives us a better chance to win. Period.

kstate16 · « **Reply #4686 on:** June 17, 2013, 09:08:12 PM »

At third base, that is.

sys · « **Reply #4687 on:** June 17, 2013, 09:10:14 PM »

agree on the no confidence thing. but i don't have any confidence in sending moose down to be fixed by the hitting coaches that basically broke every royals hitter except gordon.

Back in second place and back to .500!

Cartierfor3 · « **Reply #4689 on:** June 17, 2013, 09:15:40 PM »

1st time at .500 this late in the year since 2003, feels good.

Royals games are making longish drives seem extremely short lately.

who else was hitting better than their career norm under the maloof regime?

Just became aware of Scherzer's eye thing. No wonder he's 10-0, players are trying to track the ball but they can't look away from his creepy eyes.

yeah he seems to be a total stud about it too. for example, here is the Detroit Tigers Max Scherzer bobblehead doll:

At first, I thought that was a massive raging bone dog.
