Thanks for typing the DUMBEST DAMN THING I've seen in a game thread. 

We're not a major league catcher. Who gives a rat's ass if WE COUDLL DO IT, Adley should have. Stop being an absolute ridiculous fan boy.

That kind of shit pisses me off.

By this standard, any ball in the dirt should be blocked by a major league catcher. You are clearly emotional about this and yelling in caps lock doesn't make you right. It wasn't even a passed ball, you're flipping out that he didn't block a wild pitch.

This game is suddenly a nail biter...once again, we simply cant score enough runs for comfort..and once again robbed by great defense in the outfield all night long...hopefully we can hold on...

[dtk9119]

Geez.. Adley robbed after a nice piece of hitting. KC's BP looks like nails hope we can match it

Tough crowd tonight 

Don't say stupid shit like "I bet you guys can't do it"! Of course we can't fricking do it. WHO CARES? It's a dumb comment that should never be said.

Now you want to just be plain wrong, be like the rest of the people in here who keeps backing up how many feet the ball went. Soon it will be, how could he block that it only went half way to the plate.

It's all so ridiculous. 

Adley misplayed the ball. He cost his team a run. That's the facts.

Then consider me one who pisses you off. It was not the type of pitch that was a no doubt block candidate. At the very least criticize Baumann for throwing a 55 foot 97 MPH fastball

Come on man, all wild pitches should be blocked by MLB catchers.

KC outfield playing an excellent game.

A few innings ago enjoyed seeing Hicks try to deke the KC runner on a short single to center.

Tony, any chance you can do a breakdown of gunnar vs Bobby Witt

Oh cmon.  Another crazy catch in the outfield to rob us?  

Seems like defense keeping KC in the game.   They've made some great plays it sounds like.   And it seems like from reading comments of folks watching on Apple, that both runs we've allowed were due to poor defensive plays by McKenna and Rutschman.

That's an opinion

Whatever is up with Cano, he needs to make an adjustment.

Maybe I should be glad I’m not watching this. Doesn’t seem like it’s going to end well.

It was completely unsustainable for Cano to keep doing what he was doing. Hopefully, he can clean this up without a run or more scoring.

I dont think 3 wins this game.

First, I am right, you're wrong. Lets just start there.

I was yelling because of the ridiculous comment that said, "Bet you can't do it!". Dumb.

No, not every pitch can or should be blocked. You know that, you're just trying to be a jerk because you are trying to use a fan evaluation of the play because you like the player. 

It was poor technique. He knows he should have dropped down. Major league catchers and even Adley does that 98% of the time. He did not. Case closed. 

Sure, it's going to be rule a passed ball but Adley will tell you or anyone else he should have blocked that or at least used the right technique.
