Thursday afternoon May 4: rubber match in KC, Orioles try to win 7th straight series

[Surhoffan17]

This offense is so Jekyll and Hyde (not Brandon) even within a game. Shutout by a has-been Greinke/Royals bullpen (that isn't 2014). Now, we're hot and back to cold.

What is with this first base ump?

[allquixotic]

5 pitches 3 outs. The bats are out there hacking at everything and the pitchers are throwing meatballs and tipping their pitches. This is sad and embarrassing.

At least Mullins came to play.

Bill Miller having a great day at 1B. 

[Moshagge3]

And some dude from AAA retires the side on five pitches. This is almost poetic.

[Moose Milligan]

The Royals have all the momentum in this game.

[Bemorewins]

What is Perez’s BAA? Has he had any appearances where he doesn’t allow multiple baserunners? 

[CynBeth]

Why put Perez in with a close game he is one our worst relievers. I should have known not to get too excited as I checked the score every now and then at work. We always seem to have issues with KC. Do not have a good feeling about this.

In fairness...nobody has stopped their bats all year...I mean Ruth and Gehrig are rolling in their graves that these men in blue will break all of their offensive records. Was hoping for a blowout today...if it happens it's the other direction. 

[Emory Eagle]

Time for Baker to back up that moonwalk.  Put an end to this nonsense.

[Gurgi]

On a side note in real life my 35 year old step son who lives in my basement and has not worked for three years is calling family and weirding them out.  People are coming over to check on him and make sure he isnt suicidal.  To me it has just been quiet.  Wonder what the hell he is saying that is freaking everyone out?  

 

[NCRaven]

Reliever walking the first batter he faces.  I believe that was my No. 1 on the pet peeve thread. 

 

[Roy Firestone]

cant get a clean inning...

[dtk9119]

Lol.. and of course Baker walks the 9th place hitter.
