🏀 KuBuckets Archive

Anyone here, I might be able to hang around a little on this one.

@wissoxfan83 As has happened countless times, Sox go down quietly in the first. Guthrie is a Sox killer for some reason.

Shark on the mound. Good plays by both 3rd basemen in the 1st inning. Which Shark will show up is the question.

Might b to early for the guys!

@Crimsonorblue22 No excuses!

NIce KU sign behind home plate

@wissoxfan83 Nebraska night👎

@Crimsonorblue22 Well this was a KU med center ad. Don't see too many red shirts there!

We lead the league in runners on 3rd with less than two outs who don't score.

Jose!

Surprised @brooksmd isn't here. It's 105 degrees outside, so I know he's not outside.

@wissoxfan83 might be date pm!

Woooohooo royals!!

Salvy!! Royals up 1⚾️💙

@Crimsonorblue22 What time this thing start? 6?

@brooksmd yes, didn't I tell u?

@brooksmd love the run down!!👀💨⚾️

@Crimsonorblue22 Except the one last week where they called Moose for interference after the guy slipped on his butt and Moose tried to vault over him but barely clipped him with his foot.

💪💨⚾️💙💙💙💙 dat speed!!!💨💨💨💨💨💨

💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩

@Crimsonorblue22 Love me some speed.

@brooksmd If that had made it to the wall it would've been an inside the parker.

@Crimsonorblue22 You scare @wissoxfan83 off?

@brooksmd royals did! Way to hit moose!

@brooksmd I know he's going to get one, he needs to bat more!!!

@Crimsonorblue22 Cain trying to add 2 more.

@brooksmd keep 'em coming!!💨💨💨⚾️⚾️⚾️⚾️

Just home - game on & I like the score...

@Crimsonorblue22 Hos had a great hit last night. Took it through the big hole in the shift on the left side.

@brooksmd I 👀 where u thought of me!😉

@brooksmd 💨💨💨💨💨💨💨💨

@globaljaybird Dat wat speed do. Dyson started things with a 3 bagger.

I break for dinner and everything falls apart.

@brooksmd hot dang!💪💪💪⚾️💙

@wissoxfan83 go back for dessert

@wissoxfan83 Obviously you didn't eat as fast as Royals ran bases.

Big park in the alleys or that ones outta there...

You not nice to @wissoxfan83

@brooksmd

This Sox team is maddening. We beat up on weak teams and then get beat up by good teams.

@wissoxfan83 Well after what the R's went through on this past road trip they needed this.

@brooksmd The memories of 2005 are still relatively fresh, but we need to start getting competitive again.

Certainly helping their RISP average this inning.

After further review, this deserves a PHOF!

Well I'm off to the concession stand for a couple of kraut dogs and a cold one. @globaljaybird can I bring you back a CB?

Abreu is worth the price of admission.

@brooksmd you got a hot dog machine?😬

Or is your wife slaving over the grill?

@Crimsonorblue22 Machine. Holds 2 dogs and 2 buns.

Pitching doing it again. This game could turn dramatically with the wrong pitch.

@brooksmd

Sox making it interesting! This is not like our team!

@wissoxfan83 This is like our pitching this year.

@brooksmd serious?

@brooksmd Well this isn't like our hitting this year!

@brooksmd here's a 51 inch dbat dog for u!!image.jpg ↗

@brooksmd didn't know there was such a thing. Does the dog go in at the same time as buns?

@Crimsonorblue22 Yep. But you have to make sure the buns aren't too thick.

Ok guys. Time to bail out the pitching again. Let's get another 4-6 runs.

Ever notice how Sox catcher Soto can't throw it back to the pitcher? He's done that all year.

@Crimsonorblue22 http://m.mlb.com/video/v343476483/cwskc-hosmer-plates-cain-with-a-hardhit-single ↗

@Crimsonorblue22 http://m.mlb.com/video/v343353683/cwskc-rios-puts-royals-on-board-with-an-rbi-double ↗

The reaction of the little kid at the end is classic.

@wissoxfan83 He was a good catcher when he was with the Cubs.

How is Rios? He was an enigma with the Sox. Multi-talented but always seemed not to care.

@wissoxfan83 I think most of us (all 3) would've liked to have seen Rios sent down instead of Paulo Orlando. We pretty much agree with you.

@brooksmd There was one year he seemed to care and was a classical 5 tool guy out there.

Man, I'm tired of Herrera. He's like Ryan. His arm never seems to tire.

@wissoxfan83 Can't remember, think it was when Gordon got hurt, but they brought Paulo up and he flat played his butt off. After 9 years in the minors you know he was hungry. Think the highlite was this in front of his family.

@brooksmd lookin good!

@brooksmd 'cept I like rios!!😉

@brooksmd that was awesome!!!

@wissoxfan83 I call Herrera Tabasco.

You gettin any weather over there? Storm rolling and and temp falling. Down to 85 with T & L. Our big kid is ready to climb in my lap.

@brooksmd Hollands been shaky!!😬

@wissoxfan83 Looks like it's headed straight south so you shouldn't be bothered. Largest chunk is over Slidell and we just getting the edge of it.

@Crimsonorblue22 What happened to the old fart? He work too hard today?

Pretty pitch for first SO.

@brooksmd he always does! Humidity was bad here and worse in kc.

Here we go!

@Crimsonorblue22 Swish, 2 outs.

This is the dominating Holland we like to see.

@brooksmd one more!! Plse!

@Crimsonorblue22 holland the man!!!

Inside letter high fastball ought to do it.

Well that one will work too.

How is a pitch 6 inches off the ground and 3 inches off the plate a strike? That home ump has been stretching the strike zone all night.

@brooksmd tmrw 1:10 start!!! 👀👀 I'm driving, w/rio, 2 hrs away👀👀👀😳😳😳😳, to my folks to c bro and Fam. Last time I had rio in car-just to the vet, he (puke). I'm going down and back. We'll watch game so I'll check in. Let's finish this! Twins lose?

@wissoxfan83 waaaaaaaah??

Looked like the ump was pretty generous on that last strike. That was a Greg Maddox strike.

@Crimsonorblue22 Losing 13-4 in the 7th.

@brooksmd hush!😡

@wissoxfan83 Like I said. That was a Greg Maddox strike. Umps always gave him that pitch if he hit the catchers glove without the catcher having to move. Used to drive me nuts when the Cubs played Atlanta and he'd get those calls.

@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah it's waaaah or whatever. An umpire decides to end a game with a hitter who has hit two homers tonight standing at the plate with the bat on his shoulders. There was no way it was a strike and that guy has been making calls like that all night. Let the players decide the game we like to say!

@brooksmd Reminded me of the Eric Gregg game where he got someone on the Marlins 15 K's in a playoff game!

@wissoxfan83 They also say if the ump is consistent then you need to be prepared.

@brooksmd The umps an idiot!! Good game, maybe I'll hang around tomorrow! Stay cool!

@globaljaybird Hey, thanks for that link. When tragedies like that happen in life, you have to believe in a purpose of reason. Whether it's your religion, your family, or your occupation, or in this case a little boy's legacy to give life to others, something tangent & real must make you strive to be a better person. Many fail this test & live on in grief, remorse, & anger forever, often succumbing to alcohol or drug abuse. That facebook post was a remarkable eulogy & tribute, & one directly from the core of that gentleman's heart. My hope is that Kaiser's family, their friends, & especially the young man who swung the bat can eventually discover the gift of this perspective, because without it, the road to recovery & healing will be a lonesome & torturous journey that we all face over & again throughout our lives. Again thanks so much for the link.

@Crimsonorblue22 Scarface, "say hello to my little friend!"

@Crimsonorblue22 Depending on how church goes I'll be here.

@brooksmd your scarface post referring to holland?

@brooksmd think it's 1.

@Crimsonorblue22 No, was watching the movie.

@Crimsonorblue22 Wow, Clevland 17, Minn 4. Final Toronto making a move to take #1 spot from Yanks in the East. Only 2.5 back of the Yanks. Really don't want to face Toronto in post season.

@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah, 1:10

@brooksmd me either! They r hot! Plus the had our #!
