Game 14 Overflow Thread
Through six innings, the offense has looked sort of feeble. Check that - they've looked incredibly feeble. The pressure has been on Bannister all night, with only a one-run cushion with which to work. Will it be enough? Will the Royals bats ever come through? On a scale of 1-10, how gushy will the next edition of JoePo's BannyLog be?
I need more words now, so here's some lyrics:
There ain't no morals to these stories at all
And everything I tell you, you can bet will be a lie
I been away from the living, I don't need to be forgiven
I'm just waiting for that cold black sun-cracked numb-inside soul of mine
....to come alive

I doubt he’ll be able to throw shutout baseball every time out (duh), but I’m impressed. If Hoch’s improvement is for real, then we have 6 legitimate starting pitchers.
Unless last night was more indicative of Ponson’s true performance.

If it’s just Banni, you wouldn’t pronounce it the traditional Bann-ee.
I figured that was it, just didn’t know if there was an inside joke or something I was missing.
