Royals Romp Past White Sox

Photo

Quite the onslaught. Start printing 2012 playoff tickets, because the foundation is in place, Dayton is making a move to bring Bloomquist back, and the future is bright.

 

  • Remember when Zack/h Stewart almost threw a perfect game? Tonight he threw an imperfect game.
  • 18 hits. I'm still not used to the Royals having a good offense. There's like four days left in the season, guess it just never sunk in.
  • Lo Cain went 2-5 in his Royals debut, including a double.
  • Four hits for a suddenly competent Moose at the plate. If only I was told "he adjusts slowly to new levels." Oh wait, I was told that five times a day for a month.
  • Alcides Escobar homered.
  • Eric Hosmer has 19 home runs, Jeff Francoeur has 20. Yay. Francoeur got to a round number for HRs.
  • Mazzaro pitched a scoreless inning and lowered his ERA to 8.88

Russie And Bloomers

Are both integral parts of playoff teams

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

I went to the dentist yesterday

and they didn’t give me any Lorenzocaine. Just cleaned my teeth. No cavities. I don’t have to go back. Good. I am terrified of the dentist.

Is it strange that I’m starting to get excited to see a Greinke playoff start?

Me too...

Hopefully after Fielder leaves, the Brewers fall apart, and Zack comes back for a 2013 plaza parade.

This game was pretty fun to watch.

I just keep waiting for Bruce Chen to announce that he’s secretly been using Brain Control to trump Ozzie Guillen’s Mind Control for over 2 years.

I'm waiting for my wave of talent to arrive.

Just about every player is having an incredible second half of the season

Post all-star by OPS
Gordon- .918
Melky- .839
Butler- .852
Hosmer- .890
Francoeur- .891

Then we have Perez who’s been great, Moustakas who’s playing better, Alcides and Giavotella.

Ford Actually Sounded

Knowledgeable in the postgame show. He discussed Melky’s defensive shortcomings, and even noted that diving catches are usually a result of poor range. He seems to be all for trading him before ST and going with Cain. I was amazed.

he was probably drunk

I miss his discussions of how Yuni would be great at second base.

I'm in northern Wisconsin with cousins and my brother who lives in Milwaukee

he is pissed at me for the Royals trading Yuni to the Brewers. I just laugh and drink another New Glarus beer.
