Minnesota: Pavano (12-6, 3.26 ERA)

and to commemorate Buck Night
the Royals scored one run. Well worth the 6 1/2 hour car ride one way.
Greinke day
Sunday afternoon in May against the Rockies. They got smoked and Greinke was awful.
That seems to be happening a lot this year
Did ol’ Gil talk to Zack to much or what?

Went to a game in Anaheim against the Angels
When I flew home to KC to visit family, I didn’t want to go to a game. It’s too upsetting.
Been to 2 games this year.
The first was home against the Mariners in early May. It was a rainy night, and we showed up in the middle of the first inning. My friends and I got 4 thirty dollar tickets from a scalper for 5 bucks each.Then, since it was raining, everyone was sitting under the overhang, and the ushers were letting people sit anywhere. Therefore, my friends and I went down and sat in the first row behind the Royals dugout. We spent the entire night yelling at Trey to put in Brayan Pena, and telling Ken Griffey Jr that he was missing out on his child’s life, and that he had a fat ass. It was one of the most memorable games I’ve ever been to. Oh yea, Kyle Davies had a surprisingly good start, getting a NoNo broken up by an Ichiro infield single in the first inning. And the Royals won.
The second game I went to was home against the Rangers in late May. It was a fun game, but paled in comparison to the first game I went to this year. Bought the cheapest tickets at the window, I think they were $8. Sat in the first row behind the walkway on the field level. From here up, the ushers don’t check tickets. The thing memorable this game was Gil Meche getting shelled. Vlad Guerrero had 2 home runs and a double, and Josh Hamilton hit the farthest homerun I’ve ever seen. 450 some feet over the batter’s eye in dead center. It was very impressive.
Dear Alex Gordon:
I still think you will be awesome, but for the love of God, please stop getting hurt.
Sincerely,
RF
Nice touch.
Oh yea, Kyle Davies had a surprisingly good start, getting a NoNo broken up by an Ichiro infield single in the first inning.
BTW
Not to nitpick – but I think this is game 100 (not 99). Though it would be nice to get a do over …….

I've been to 2 games this year
First game scored Dugout suites and watched Greinke get shelled…
Second game I went with a friend who has season tickets and we watched Bannister get shelled from the Party Porch

Also
I was looking at our results since the A.S. break. In 11 games, we’ve given up 91 runs (8.3 runs a game). I know that last night skews the numbers, but even if you take that game out, the average isn’t good. We’ve really only had 1 well pitched game (post A.S.) – that was Zack vs. Toronto – and Pena was the catcher.

SMALL SAMPLE SIZE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But at this point I don’t care. Kendall needs to go.
SSS
yeah, I know. But, that is still a lot of runs over a short stretch. And yes – that one good start was more Zack’s pitching than Brayan’s catching – but still….gotta agree that Kendall must go!

Saw Greinke pitch in Toronto, tons of Ks
I think Rupe or someone blew it, then Tejeda came and shut the Jays down, and Alex Gordon ended a horrible game for him in the field (3B!) and at the plate with a game winning homer in extra innings (I believe, maybe it was the ninth?)

if I get sick tonight, it’s due to the Royals, not the boiled shrimp and the overeating at a Chinese buffet (Pork Chops! way too many freaking mushrooms!)

I asked todays question because I am making my first one tomorrow.
Is there any decent food at the stadium?
- .-. ..- … – / – …. . / .—. .-. - .. . … …
Don't get the generic food.
The outfield BBQ stand is decent, but I wish it was something local like Gates or Oklahoma Joe’s out there.
Haven’t tried Stroud’s chicken.
During the game I’ll settle for the Nacho plate at one of the Mexican lines. Your choice of some toppings and a meat.
The Stroud's is o.k.
Obviously not as good as at the restaurant. Don’t bother with the cinnamon roll though.

I would second this general idea

I can’t help but feel like Chen’s getting exposed tonight. Pavano will stymie us with 3 hits or something and Chen will blow up like Greinke did.

I checked the betting line
Just for fun, expecting it to be 200 or 220 at least; it was only 145 (i.e., bet 145 on the Twins and get 245 back if they win).
uh
you can make money if the Twins win? What the hell?

People look for lines out of whack; this seems like one; the line thinks we have a better chance than one would rationally conclude.
I still can't figure out how you'd get that return from the Royals losing
shouldn’t you lose money for betting against the Royals?
Follow me on Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/bhindepmo (follow me, because reloading my twitter page 40 times a day is kind of creepy)
you don't lose money, you just win less
for instance (not real numbers)
bet 100 on the Royals, you win 145 (145 + the 100 you bet)
bet 100 on the Twins, you win 55 (55 + the 100 you bet)

*So, on MLBTR, Soria gets killed because he doesn’t want to pitch for the Yankees

And just had to say that… Alex Gordon looks awful in the outfield. It was really bad from my seats. Also, it would not be an exagerration to say that the outfield defense last night was the worst that I have ever seen in the big leagues, hands down – I don’t think they caught a ball until the 6th inning. Tonight has not been any better.
No, Alberto Callaspo's got that locked down until Moose is ready
didn’t you hear about all that conditioning Bert did that explained his awesome power this season? Add that to his tremendous plate discipline, and we’re set.

Not sure I’d want to pay $3,000 to chat with him for two innings.
FREE BRAYAN PENA.
A few years ago I sat next to him and his family on a flight from Charleston, SC to Atlanta
I was shocked he was flying regular coach. We got talking and I explained that I was going on to KC from Atlanta, which they of course were as well. Our flight got in late and we ended up missing the connection. He was extremely pissed, as was I. The plane going to KC was literally pulling out of the gate when we ran up to it. They didn’t wait for us. I actually have a very interested and very long story about that whole day. His wife and sons were very friendly. George was…..well, surly and pissed off, understandably.
So did you stay at the same hotel that night?
Or get another flight into KC?

…there were two more flights to KC that night. We didn’t get on the first one. I got on the second one, and his wife and one of his sons did, but they were the last ones to get on the plane….so George obviously stayed behind with his other son (and I think they had a set of grandparents with them, too, who didn’t get on the plane either). His son that was just interviewed in the booth actually kept striking up conversations with me during the waits at each gate. I never once let on that I knew who Brett was or cared, because I just don’t like people who act starstruck. Kinda funny that I got on a plane and ol’ George was denied!

He seems like a fun guy.
