5 months ago: Kansas City Royals' Willie Bloomquist scores on a single by Billy Butler during the sixth inning of a baseball game against the Cincinnati Reds Saturday, June 13, 2009, in Kansas City, Mo. Kansas City won the game 7-4. (AP Photo/Charlie Riedel)


Willie Bloomquist and Billy Butler each had three hits, which along with a strong overall night from the rest of the lineup and a decent pitching performance by Hiram Davies, propelled the Royals to victory over the Cincinnati Reds.

All glory goes to St. Willie! May his shining example of hustle, ball-playerness, and grit be an example for all mankind, guiding us through our Earthly existence.

it was 31-25 AL this morning

with 4 games still to finish tonight, I think it’s 37-29 AL at the moment, with Boston ahead of Philly in the 8th, LAD ahead of TEX in the 8th, , COL over SEA in the 8th, and OAK and SF tied inthe 7th

star reporting

that crisp may be going to the dl so that’s probably why hulett is coming up

I hereby resign from this post.

yay Nick Swartz

it took 2 weeks to do that? they didn’t realize that TREATING an injury is the best method to overcoming it?

Gordon, Soria, Aviles, Crisp.

All of them missed games due to injury, came back, and hurt themselves further and went on the DL.

Guess the bleeding and leeches didn’t work on Coco

More and more I'm finding

veracity in the whispers that our training staff blows more than Trey’s fashion sense.

Clearly running on momentum from the seagull fiasco

As We Used

To say about the stock markets, zero is the bottom.

I used to be an A's fan until they left town and got good.

Baseball Tonight refered to Bloomquist as "The Silent Assassin"

which is a bit ill-fitting, since TPJ is the one with the batting average of .007
