Royals in Chi-town today for a twin-bill. First game at 1:10 with the second starting at 7:10. Volquez goes against Samardzija in game 1 with Young facing Danks under the stars. Good opportunity for the R's to pickup 2 from the bottom feeding Sox, get to 20 games over .500 and put some distance between them and the Twins
@Crimsonorblue22 Save those to open when they win the WS.
Nice, I would love to display the bottles on the bar in my pool room. Any idea where you get them?
@nlbmprez: Seriously, how cool are these? New Monarchs etched & hand-painted wine bottles from Manos Wine. @Royals @MLB http://t.co/MOObFejCP5 β
@JayHawkFanToo check them out for me.
Wonder if they can do a KU bottle? Really cool, not sure about the wine. Maybe u can check that out.π·
Here you go...link... β.
They are hand etched and painted and $180 for the set. I will guess the wine is not worth drinking and the bottle is what you really want. A little too pricey for my taste. They do custom designs but in small quantities I imagine it would be very expensive.
@JayHawkFanToo Saw some other cool bottles on the site, royals and chiefs
@Crimsonorblue22 My brother-in-law down here has a photography and trophy business. He has a laser etching machine that does that stuff. He did a set of whisky glasses for me with the Gadsen symbol on them. Real nice.
As long as they have a license from KU to use their copyrighted logo and pay royalties, copyright should not be an issue...
@Crimsonorblue22 Here
@Crimsonorblue22 You should water in the morning when it is still cool. Watering now you lose more to evaporation.
Great throw by Butera to nail the stolen base attempt. Perfect location.
@brooksmd where's our partner @globaljaybird ?
@Crimsonorblue22 Painting?
@Crimsonorblue22 I sprayed 2 gallons of Roundup this morning and shirt was soaked. Will be indoors rest of the day doing laundry. Do another 2 gallons in the morning when it's cooler. Then working the range tomorrow afternoon. Not looking forward to that.
Dang, hate it when they leave runners on after singles by Rios and Butera.
Questionable throwout on the steal attempt contested by WS but reviewing official no convincing evidence to over turn the call.
Cain still hot at the plate with a single. Moose moves to 2nd after getting a walk.
Hos fouls out.
Crap 2 more lob after Morales so.

Soto hr ties score after 3, 1-1.
Royals go 1-2-3 in the 4th.
98' in Chicago and Gordon in dugout wearing a hoodie.
Foul tip by Moose probably loosened some fillings in the umps mouth.
atta boy workem Moose
It took Moose about 20 foul balls to finally get the one he wanted clearing the center field wall. 2-1 R's.
2-2, tied again
@clevelandjayhawk Crap. I go move clothes from washer to dryer and it's tied.
Hos scrambles and slides to the outside to beat the tag for a double. Morales singles and moves Hos to 3rd.
Infante grounds into dp scoring Hos from 3rd. R's 3-2.
Rios with a 2 out solo shot to left. 4-2 R's
@Crimsonorblue22 You come take care of my laundry so I can keep the R's in front.
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah.
How did they get 2nd run?
@Crimsonorblue22 No don't hang them out. But laundry room other side of house. No place to fold except in bdrm. Hang pants and shirts in laundry room.
@Crimsonorblue22 Both WS runs from solo HR.
Come on Madson.
@Crimsonorblue22 Next load in dryer will take time as it's got wife's scrubs to hang.
Did buttera pick off another?
WS get runners to 2nd and 3rd with 1 out but next 2 hitters ground back to pitcher to end the threat.
Love the day games (if we win) man this one has my heart going....HDH or a few more insurance runs would be nice
@clevelandjayhawk glad u r here!! Do dog lovers love royals?
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes
@clevelandjayhawk Yeah the way balls are flying out of the park another 4 runs would be good.
if moose gets on i wonder if smardzjia will plunk Cain?
@clevelandjayhawk better not!!
Ventura not in dugout?
@Crimsonorblue22 Streaming it to ipad in laundry room. :smile:
3 more outs
Alright it's Holland time. Bottom 9th, Royals 4-2. Make it quick as the kids are getting restless and need to go out.
Credit to Holland to cover first on that almost dp.
Grounder to Moose. Game!! Royals now 19 games over .500 and 2nd best in MLB.
@Crimsonorblue22 Should be back tonite. Whites in dryer and that's it.
@brooksmd hope @globaljaybird didn't overheat today!!π‘ππβοΈπ₯
Game 2 of the day/night doubleheader underway in the top of the 2nd.

Rio is dragging the kitchen rug in here! He drags all of them in here.
@Crimsonorblue22 sent a chat to @globaljaybird but nothing so far
CRAP!!!
@Crimsonorblue22 LITTLE GUY
Coleman is my sons old gf's cousin. U know the guy that freaked!
Lil stickπ
@brooksmd Am unable to chat from iPhone & don't have acces to laptop now. Been working extra last few days at another of our locations & no time to talk. When I do get to the laptop I'll run it down to ya. Talked to old Greg Pryor again yesterday for a bit. He was utility infielder on the 85' WS Championship team. Fun guy to talk baseball with& he's really not that old, early to mid 50's I guess. Remember Big John Mayberry? 1st baseman in the 7o's & 80's? He was in last week also & he's prob abt our age, but really thin comp to his playing career. Think I've mentioned before but the guys I work for have a marketing & sales partnership with the Royals...I'm still waiting on my damn tickets too, but my mgr has tics for the Pirate's series in the damn club restaraunt next week...
@globaljaybird well good to know the heat aint got to ya. Remember Mayberry but not so much Pryor.
@Crimsonorblue22 When I said little guy was referring to WS hitter. He was barely a head taller than Salvy when he was in his catchers crouch.
@globaljaybird I remember big john!
Volquez getting killed, physically beaning him!!
@Crimsonorblue22 You don't have to wait for me to ask always interested in how Rio is doing.
@Crimsonorblue22 Mayberry is a really polite & gentle guy but, but was a helluva player in his day. Nice to see that successful careers didn't give these guys huge egos, because some are not that way.
@globaljaybird Same with Rascal. Like his new photo. Going for a ride.
@Crimsonorblue22 There he is. Carlos Sanchez.
Think that makes Royals catchers 3 for 3 so far today on steal attempts.
After 5 it's 1-0 Chi
Rio is one crazy dude. Sometimes he's loving and sweet, but when he plays, he gets pretty aggressive! Follows me everywhere and still scared w/new things. Shadow for one! Won't go in the garage, afraid of the car.
Crap on this game!π©π
U guys left me again!!π³πππ
ROCK CHALK WHITE SOX
@wissoxfan83 Yada, Yada, raspberries...
@globaljaybird it's a miracle!!
@wissoxfan83 thought u were unplugged?
@Crimsonorblue22 said:
@brooksmd buttera threw one in c field. First game
That was a pickoff attempt, not a steal.
Salvy! Terrible pitch
Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey Goodby!:smiley:
@wissoxfan83 paybacks r.......u know!!!!
Well, that sucked. Won't be here tomorrow. Working out at the range. :gun:
