Mets vs Royals - World Series Game 2
Oct 28, 2015 11:56 PM #1

Wow, what a game last night! The amazing Royals bullpen kept the team in the game until the Mets gave them an opportunity to bring home the win in 14 innings. And as much fun and excitement last night had, I'd just as soon they do it in 9 tonight. With the possibility of late rain, the guys need to put some markers on the board early and often so we're in the position to take this one no matter what. The only question tonight, which Cueto shows up? When he's on he's great. When he isn't, well we know what happens. But his goal is to go deep into the game so the bullpen can relax and rest. Almost forgot to mention Eddy Volquez and his performance last night and the loss of his father earlier in the day. Our condolences to him and his family.

@brooksmd we ready!!

Oct 29, 2015 12:13 AM #3

Instead of saying 24 outs I guess I should say whatever 13 x 3 isπŸ˜‹39?

Oct 29, 2015 12:13 AM #4

Cueto looks like he came to play tonight.

Oct 29, 2015 12:14 AM #5

@brooksmd I'm counting on it!

Oct 29, 2015 12:15 AM #6

@globaljaybird Well, how's Cueto look to you after 1 inning?

Oct 29, 2015 12:15 AM #7

3 up 3 down... Here comes ESKY....

Oct 29, 2015 12:17 AM #8

@brooksmd Hope he has his schizz together, if we win this thing he has to be a big part of it.

Oct 29, 2015 12:18 AM #9

I like that Degrom is a righty as it benefits Hos, Moose and Gordo.

Oct 29, 2015 12:20 AM #10

@brooksmd Also Morales has more power from the left side too.

Oct 29, 2015 12:24 AM #11

No marlins man?

Oct 29, 2015 12:25 AM #12

I would change my name if it was duda

Oct 29, 2015 12:26 AM #13

There he is!

Oct 29, 2015 12:27 AM #14

Made to order DP yeah!

Oct 29, 2015 12:28 AM #15

Now let's see some lefties hammer DeGrom... Hammer Time...

Oct 29, 2015 12:29 AM #16

I'm flipping over to espnu to see KU vb vs isu

Oct 29, 2015 12:30 AM #17

TV feed is at least 30 secs behind radio...

Oct 29, 2015 12:30 AM #18

Hoz! Come on!

Oct 29, 2015 12:33 AM #19

Deform looks like that red head that chops everything!

Oct 29, 2015 12:33 AM #20

I'm here on occasion to contribute witty analysis of the action before us.

Oct 29, 2015 12:37 AM #21

@brooksmd ok not that guy

Oct 29, 2015 12:38 AM #22

@Crimsonorblue22 Maybe Carrot Top the comedian.

Oct 29, 2015 12:38 AM #23

Ump may be gettin in CUETOS head-if so not good...

Oct 29, 2015 12:39 AM #24

Whiff!

Oct 29, 2015 12:39 AM #25

@globaljaybird Maybe Cueto getting in hitters head.

Oct 29, 2015 12:40 AM #26

@brooksmd that's it! Thx

Oct 29, 2015 12:40 AM #27

@brooksmd OK by me brooks...

Oct 29, 2015 12:41 AM #28

@brooksmd u think?

Oct 29, 2015 12:42 AM #29

I like this, even if it goes 14 innings it will be over at 10:00 at this pace.

Oct 29, 2015 12:46 AM #30

@wissoxfan83 oh man!

Oct 29, 2015 12:46 AM #31

Don't mind these flyouts as long as the guys are gettin wood on the ball and not striking out. The base hits will come.

Oct 29, 2015 12:50 AM #32

Have I said I don't like these announcers?πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„πŸ‘„up

Oct 29, 2015 12:50 AM #33

Esky you never gonna get that fastball above the letters.

Oct 29, 2015 12:51 AM #34

@Crimsonorblue22 You're just spoilt.

Oct 29, 2015 12:52 AM #35

Murphy, Mets new hr hitter. Ask Toronto how we treat hr hitters.

Oct 29, 2015 12:52 AM #36

@brooksmd hey smarty pants πŸ‘„my whatever!!

Oct 29, 2015 12:56 AM #37

@globaljaybird Tell me why Ned puts Hos at cleanup when you have a switcher in Morales with a better ba.

Oct 29, 2015 12:56 AM #38

Cueto is just getting it and firing it. I like that #Speedygames

Oct 29, 2015 01:00 AM #39

Murphy infringing on Cueto's space.

Oct 29, 2015 01:02 AM #40

Come on ump.

Oct 29, 2015 01:02 AM #41

Strike dumb ump

Oct 29, 2015 01:04 AM #42

Ump taking game away from pitchers.

Oct 29, 2015 01:04 AM #43

Took that bait, know it all

Oct 29, 2015 01:05 AM #44

Out

Oct 29, 2015 01:06 AM #45

I guess I was wrong. Hoz should have got off quicker and got back

Oct 29, 2015 01:06 AM #46

Out

Oct 29, 2015 01:07 AM #47

If the hitters can talk to ump about zone then Cueto should be able to.

Oct 29, 2015 01:08 AM #48

Your all wrong. Guy doing the damage is plate ump.

Oct 29, 2015 01:08 AM #49

Buck whines like like a whipped donkey...

Oct 29, 2015 01:10 AM #50

@brooksmd said:

Dunno brooks have wondered that myself for some time. Maybe better contact hitter & fewer strikeouts. & DPs.

Oct 29, 2015 01:11 AM #51

ARoid talking now? I can't stand the guy.

Oct 29, 2015 01:14 AM #52

Did you know that commissioner Rob Manfred (I think that's his name) wants to do away with the shift defense?

Oct 29, 2015 01:15 AM #53

@wissoxfan83 Now wissox, Aroid & Uncle Pete Rose share such special bond...

Oct 29, 2015 01:18 AM #54

Gotta make em pay for that friggin error- NOW!

Oct 29, 2015 01:18 AM #55

Take the lead MOOSE !

Oct 29, 2015 01:19 AM #56

Maybe he'd rather pitch to Salvy

Oct 29, 2015 01:20 AM #57

Oct 29, 2015 01:34 AM #59

Hi all. Lets go Royals!

Oct 29, 2015 01:35 AM #60

Let's go Royals clap clap clap clap clap!!!

Oct 29, 2015 01:35 AM #61

Need help!!

Oct 29, 2015 01:36 AM #62

So maybe the winning pitcher cuts the losing pitcher's hair?

Oct 29, 2015 01:37 AM #63

@Eric

Oct 29, 2015 01:38 AM #65

YESSSSS!! Rally time!

Oct 29, 2015 01:38 AM #66

Go ahead and continue talking about the broken record of bad bunting!

Oct 29, 2015 01:39 AM #67

I figured Esky would get the high hard one inside but Degrof left it out over.& had to pay... Go Zo !

Oct 29, 2015 01:39 AM #68

Doo dah doo dah

Oct 29, 2015 01:40 AM #69

@Eric

That comment about hair cuts may be one of the funniest ever on kubuckets!

Oct 29, 2015 01:49 AM #76

Moose πŸ‘€πŸ‘€βšΎοΈ

Oct 29, 2015 01:49 AM #77

I love how the Royals continue to be underdogs according to the media and Vegas.

Can't stand Joe Buck calling baseball games.

Oct 29, 2015 01:52 AM #83

@Eric herald driving me nuts too!!

Oct 29, 2015 01:53 AM #84

All we hear, mets pitching bla bla

Oct 29, 2015 01:53 AM #85

Salvys us the 9th hitter this inning... Gordo on deck again...YEAAAAH!!!

Oct 29, 2015 01:53 AM #86

@Eric Where do you find information like that? Fascinating.

Oct 29, 2015 01:54 AM #87

Like to see the pitch box thingy on that called strike three. Looked significantly inside.

It's pretty incredible to see the win probability of the post season the for Royals.

Oct 29, 2015 02:02 AM #93

Rain pickin up a little here at the farm...but wind has died down for now. Supposed to turn to North & temps drop...we'll see.

Oct 29, 2015 02:08 AM #97

We lost @brooksmd

Oct 29, 2015 02:12 AM #98

@Eric A local sportscaster said he casually asked Buck a question once & said the reply was so hateful & sarcastic he was appalled. Said Buck came across as the rudest prima Donna he'd ever encountered in 40 yrs in the business. Not a surprise he is so sarcastic to his fellow announcers, bet they don't like him either.

Oct 29, 2015 02:16 AM #99

Funny they joke abt Bucks beard... I was thinking it looked like a winos beard after a four day bender...

Oct 29, 2015 02:17 AM #100

Here's Johnny!

!image.jpg β†—

Oct 29, 2015 02:18 AM #101

Damn, Johnny C has a 2 hitter thru 7... Who'd a thunk that would happen?

Oct 29, 2015 02:19 AM #102

6 outs away!

Oct 29, 2015 02:21 AM #103

@globaljaybird I heard he got really mad when the in studio guys took over game and told he them to get out-during the power outage.

Oct 29, 2015 02:22 AM #104

@Crimsonorblue22 Need more insurance... 4 more would work

Oct 29, 2015 02:24 AM #105

This ump is awful

Oct 29, 2015 02:24 AM #106

Patience looooo Cain!

Oct 29, 2015 02:25 AM #107

This ump is great

Oct 29, 2015 02:25 AM #108

Really worried about @brooksmd

Oct 29, 2015 02:26 AM #109

@Crimsonorblue22

Where is he?

Oct 29, 2015 02:27 AM #110

@VailHawk we lost him

Oct 29, 2015 02:29 AM #111

@Crimsonorblue22 Sorry for being AWOL, but better half came home and we had to talk about her day. But kept up with what was going on and even got her interested when the Royals were running the bases.

Oct 29, 2015 02:30 AM #112

@brooksmd Gotta do your duty- If Mama ain't happy...

Oct 29, 2015 02:32 AM #113

Cueto going the whole way? Wow!

Oct 29, 2015 02:32 AM #114

@Crimsonorblue22

He's about an hour away, should I drive over and check on him?

Oct 29, 2015 02:32 AM #115

@brooksmd let us know next time, @globaljaybird was calling 911

Oct 29, 2015 02:33 AM #116

@wissoxfan83 next time!!!

Mooooose, way to look it inπŸ‘€βšΎοΈ

Oct 29, 2015 02:34 AM #118

@Crimsonorblue22 Be alittle kinder to Rose. Not a lot, but just a pinch. After all he sees the Royals as winners.

Wow, the Cueto we love to see. Esky not happy with ALCS MVP, he's going for WS MVP.

Oct 29, 2015 02:38 AM #121

@brooksmd guess herald doesn't know the crowd hasn't been to happy w/Cueto. Nor does it seem he likes it here either.😳

Oct 29, 2015 02:39 AM #122

@brooksmd I'm talking joe bucket head and herald

Oct 29, 2015 02:39 AM #123

@Crimsonorblue22 And I didn't even have to look up the number...

Oct 29, 2015 02:39 AM #124

Come on Salvy. Insurance.

Oct 29, 2015 02:41 AM #125

Sat pm, game is when my son and gf's pic might be on.πŸ‘€πŸ‘€

Oct 29, 2015 02:41 AM #126

Well he put insurance in scoring position. Good enough.

Oct 29, 2015 02:41 AM #127

So happy for salvy!!!😍

Oct 29, 2015 02:43 AM #128

Woooohoooo, r they rattled by lowly ole kc?

Oct 29, 2015 02:43 AM #129

Home Runs? We don't need no stinkin' home runs.

Oct 29, 2015 02:45 AM #130

Glad we, I mean you all, won't have to stay up til 1:00 tonight. What time did that game end anyways?

Oct 29, 2015 02:45 AM #131

@wissoxfan83 About 1215

Oct 29, 2015 02:46 AM #132

@brooksmd I still want one from Cain and morales. Greedy I guess! Think we are surprising some people?😱

Oct 29, 2015 02:47 AM #134

@wissoxfan83 Yeah, couldn't even celebrate as son and I went out to the range at 7 this morning.

Oct 29, 2015 02:47 AM #135

@brooksmd You gonna come over and watch Simmons play this year? One game that might be really good is LSU-Oklahoma.

Oct 29, 2015 02:47 AM #136

@wissoxfan83 Will have to look at their schedule.

Oct 29, 2015 02:48 AM #137

@brooksmd MOst of their non conf schedule is pretty crappy unfortunately.

Oct 29, 2015 02:49 AM #138

@Crimsonorblue22 Anybody who knows the Royals shouldn't be surprised. But New Yorker's aren't the smartest.

Oct 29, 2015 02:49 AM #139

Oh my I love this team!πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ˜˜πŸ˜˜

Oct 29, 2015 02:49 AM #140

@Crimsonorblue22 I'll settle for that extra 4 ins runs OK ?!

Oct 29, 2015 02:50 AM #141

@globaljaybird If you haven't already, I think we can start our celebrating now.

Oct 29, 2015 02:50 AM #142

@wissoxfan83 game was like 5 hrs 13 minutes or so?

Oct 29, 2015 02:51 AM #143

@brooksmd On da wagon for awhile boss...can't mix with meds...

Oct 29, 2015 02:52 AM #144

@globaljaybird how long was game last pm, 5 hrs and 13 mins?

Oct 29, 2015 02:52 AM #145

Announcers have quieted

Oct 29, 2015 02:53 AM #146

@Crimsonorblue22 I'm pretty sure the Sox-Stros marathon in 2005 ended around 1AM. THankfully I didn't have to work the next day.

Oct 29, 2015 02:53 AM #147

Who said insurance?

Oct 29, 2015 02:54 AM #148

That wasn't a sign of respect? Kidding me?

Oct 29, 2015 02:55 AM #149

@Crimsonorblue22 Official game time: 5 hr 9 minutes

Oct 29, 2015 02:56 AM #150

My daughter is filling out her on line application for KU! It's a longshot at this point, but I'll work on her. My last chance to parent a Jayhawk.

Oct 29, 2015 03:00 AM #153

Did the mets fans all buy the same hoodies?

Oct 29, 2015 03:01 AM #154

Oct 29, 2015 03:03 AM #155

Go Cueto! Finish

Oct 29, 2015 03:03 AM #156

Last one sports fans... We're goin to the Big Apple up 2-0... Yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!

Oct 29, 2015 03:04 AM #158

That's what I wanted to see. No high 5's, but hugs for Cueto. Great game Johnny. Great game Royals.

Oct 29, 2015 03:06 AM #159

Whoooooo hooo big advantage!!!!

Oct 29, 2015 03:06 AM #160

Oct 29, 2015 03:08 AM #161

Who said wood on the ball even if it's flyouts cause the hits will come?

Oct 29, 2015 03:11 AM #167

@Crimsonorblue22 Cueto?

Oct 29, 2015 03:12 AM #168

Go take game 3, let them have 4 & 5 and come home and finish it in game 6.

Oct 29, 2015 03:12 AM #169

@brooksmd my guess

Oct 29, 2015 03:16 AM #170

@brooksmd tell me again why u like Pete?

Oct 29, 2015 03:19 AM #171

@brooksmd Winning at home would be special for the players AND the fans. I recall 85' how Dad & I jumped up & hugged each other when Motley caught the last fly ball for the final out. Betcha He's smiling down right now... We just took Mom a new 55" Samsung last week for her birthday so she's enjoying this too, at least as much as possible.

Oct 29, 2015 03:22 AM #172

@Crimsonorblue22 I was just saying you should just be a pinch kinder since he is all in for the Royals. Not alot, just a pinch.

Oct 29, 2015 03:24 AM #173

@Crimsonorblue22 FS1 just showed Cueto getting the love from Salvy.

Oct 29, 2015 03:25 AM #174

He got the little munchkin with the bowtie too.

Oct 29, 2015 03:28 AM #175

Rose still saying Royals in 5.

Oct 29, 2015 03:29 AM #176

Did he just sat Yankees?

Oct 29, 2015 03:30 AM #177

@brooksmd I saw that.

Oct 29, 2015 03:31 AM #178

@globaljaybird ahhhπŸ’™

Oct 29, 2015 03:32 AM #179

Two stats that are good to see: Esky 2-5, Hos 2-4 and Moose 2-3. Now need to get Cain back on track.

Oct 29, 2015 03:33 AM #180

Could be 2-2. Yeah right!

Oct 29, 2015 03:33 AM #181

@brooksmd morales?

Oct 29, 2015 03:34 AM #182

@Crimsonorblue22 He won't see much if any pt in NY. No DH.

Oct 29, 2015 03:37 AM #183

@RexHudler1: Up 2-0!?! New York, you got to go! NYC bound, keep it up don't let up! #TakeTheCrown #WorldSeries2015

Oct 29, 2015 03:37 AM #184

@Crimsonorblue22 2-2 About what I was thinking. Could also be 3-1 or 4-0, too. Royals would like to win 1 of 3. Mets have to win at least 2.

Oct 29, 2015 03:52 AM #185

I can't seem them winning 2

Oct 29, 2015 04:09 AM #186

@Crimsonorblue22 If the Royals let the fans get loud it could be tough. Much like Toronto. Northeast sports fans are the worse.

Oct 29, 2015 04:28 AM #187

@brooksmd let's bet a coke or iced tea on it, I say we win 2 there.

Oct 29, 2015 04:28 AM #188

@brooksmd think Toronto is much better!

Oct 29, 2015 04:57 AM #189

@Crimsonorblue22 Okay, your on and I hope you win. How's that? No wait. I don't hope they win 2 there. I want them to win the WS in the K with the fans. Oh what a party.

Oct 29, 2015 05:56 AM #190

Go Royals! Win 2 as soon as possible! If they win the Series, the party will ensue, no matter where they clinch!

Oct 29, 2015 12:05 PM #191

@bskeet thx!

Oct 29, 2015 12:06 PM #192

@brooksmd I want them to win in kc, but I don't want any doubts, or prolonging!

Oct 29, 2015 03:10 PM #193

Only Met who got the hits, Duda, Duda.

Only Met who got the hits, oh Duda day.

Mets will stink all night, Mets will stink all day

If Duda is the only one to hit all Duda day.
