Royals take 2nd game from Yankees, 3-1!

[evlbstrd]

I'm liking this.
First back-to-back wins against the Yankees since 1999.

1. Wow that feels good.......

I really hate the Yankees. Did I mention I hate them?

[evlbstrd]

3. I'm feelin' ya!

[WindRavenX]

2. Seriously, this team pisses me off

Fuckin' A.
If I was in charge, they'd never lose a game.

[evlbstrd]

4. Yeah, but I wouldn't be crazy enough

to suggest a sweep.

[WindRavenX]

5. It might happen

The offense is so anemic righ now...the only good thing out of this game is that fuckin Torre FINALLY didn't put Womack in the two spot which has killed SO MANY RALLIES I don't even know where to begin.
ARGHGHHHHHHH
And Bernie in CF- stop it! Just..stop.

6. We weren't supposed to like tonight's pitching matchup,

But Carrasco did a nice job. And I guess the Big Unit ain't the Unit he used to be.

10. his slider sucks ass now

No break at all.

[evlbstrd]

12. The Royals did a similar thing last year with Juan Gonzalez.

Paid him big bucks to sit on the DL.

[WindRavenX]

13. he's either hurt (groin)

Or time has finally caught up to him.
Fuck. I can't believe we gave up Vazquez.

[evlbstrd]

14. Sounds like age to me.

I can barely mouse some days!

[WindRavenX]

15. I'll wait til the AS break

He had better speed and velocity today, but again, his slider sucked ass, which worries me because that's his money pitch.

[evlbstrd]

16. I was actually surprised to hear that.

I listen the games on radio (damned cable teevee deals!), but I heard a lot of "Slider, missed.)

[WindRavenX]

17. yup

It's not breaking.

7. Looks like Pat Robertson's a Yanks fan.

Either that or he needs about three boxes of Ex-Lax.

My two favorite teams: The Angels and whoever's playing -- no, that's not true. But I like it when someone other than the Yankees are in first.

[evlbstrd]

8. And it's really fun when a struggling team beats an elite.

[bertha katzenengel]

9. I like the Royals anyway.

Hell, I like half the teams in the AL almost as much as the Halos. LOL

My tenuous tie to KC: I have a personally (i.e., to me) autographed photo of Reggie Jackson in a Kansas City A's uniform.

[evlbstrd]

11. Wow! The A's?!

Old Municpal Stadium, barbecue smoke wafting in from Arthur Bryant's.
Of course, we still hate Charlie Finley.

[bertha katzenengel]

18. Charley Finley will always be reviled as one of the more - to put it kind-

to put it kindly -- eccentric owners. :eyes:

I'll scan that photo of Reggie & post it someday.
