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.
Instead of saying 24 outs I guess I should say whatever 13 x 3 isπ39?
Cueto looks like he came to play tonight.
@globaljaybird Well, how's Cueto look to you after 1 inning?
3 up 3 down... Here comes ESKY....
I like that Degrom is a righty as it benefits Hos, Moose and Gordo.
No marlins man?
I would change my name if it was duda
There he is!
Made to order DP yeah!
Now let's see some lefties hammer DeGrom... Hammer Time...
I'm flipping over to espnu to see KU vb vs isu
TV feed is at least 30 secs behind radio...
Hoz! Come on!
Deform looks like that red head that chops everything!
I'm here on occasion to contribute witty analysis of the action before us.
@Crimsonorblue22 Maybe Carrot Top the comedian.
Ump may be gettin in CUETOS head-if so not good...
Whiff!
@globaljaybird Maybe Cueto getting in hitters head.
I like this, even if it goes 14 innings it will be over at 10:00 at this pace.
@wissoxfan83 oh man!
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.
Have I said I don't like these announcers?ππππup
Esky you never gonna get that fastball above the letters.
@Crimsonorblue22 You're just spoilt.
Murphy, Mets new hr hitter. Ask Toronto how we treat hr hitters.
@globaljaybird Tell me why Ned puts Hos at cleanup when you have a switcher in Morales with a better ba.
Cueto is just getting it and firing it. I like that #Speedygames
Murphy infringing on Cueto's space.
Come on ump.
Strike dumb ump
Ump taking game away from pitchers.
Took that bait, know it all
Out
I guess I was wrong. Hoz should have got off quicker and got back
Out
If the hitters can talk to ump about zone then Cueto should be able to.
Your all wrong. Guy doing the damage is plate ump.
Buck whines like like a whipped donkey...

Dunno brooks have wondered that myself for some time. Maybe better contact hitter & fewer strikeouts. & DPs.
ARoid talking now? I can't stand the guy.
Did you know that commissioner Rob Manfred (I think that's his name) wants to do away with the shift defense?
@wissoxfan83 Now wissox, Aroid & Uncle Pete Rose share such special bond...
Gotta make em pay for that friggin error- NOW!
Take the lead MOOSE !
Maybe he'd rather pitch to Salvy
@Shauncore: Really ultra tight zone tonight. Blue dots are my emphasis on called balls against Cueto image.jpg" style="max-width:100%;"> β
Salami for Salvy-yeah !
Hi all. Lets go Royals!
Let's go Royals clap clap clap clap clap!!!
Need help!!
So maybe the winning pitcher cuts the losing pitcher's hair?
Rally time
YESSSSS!! Rally time!
Go ahead and continue talking about the broken record of bad bunting!
I figured Esky would get the high hard one inside but Degrof left it out over.& had to pay... Go Zo !
Doo dah doo dah
Break it open Lo cain
!image.jpg β
This is terrible.
Be u t ful!!ππ
Big ken!!
Get it up to Morales & he won't miss either...
Moose ππβΎοΈ
I love how the Royals continue to be underdogs according to the media and Vegas.
Soooooo close!
C'mon MOOSE nail one
@Crimsonorblue22
Can't stand Joe Buck calling baseball games.
All we hear, mets pitching bla bla
Salvys us the 9th hitter this inning... Gordo on deck again...YEAAAAH!!!
Did I just hear we were stealing signs?
π βοΈ
Who's pitching next? For us
9 outs away
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.
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.
Not mine just forwarding it
Rios robbed!πͺβΎοΈ
@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.
Funny they joke abt Bucks beard... I was thinking it looked like a winos beard after a four day bender...
Here's Johnny!
Damn, Johnny C has a 2 hitter thru 7... Who'd a thunk that would happen?
6 outs away!
@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.
@Crimsonorblue22 Need more insurance... 4 more would work
This ump is awful
Patience looooo Cain!
This ump is great
Where is he?
@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.
Cueto going the whole way? Wow!
He's about an hour away, should I drive over and check on him?
@brooksmd let us know next time, @globaljaybird was calling 911
@wissoxfan83 next time!!!
Mooooose, way to look it inπβΎοΈ
@Crimsonorblue22 Be alittle kinder to Rose. Not a lot, but just a pinch. After all he sees the Royals as winners.
What an arm esky!πͺβΎοΈπ¨π¨π¨π¨π¨
Wow, the Cueto we love to see. Esky not happy with ALCS MVP, he's going for WS MVP.
@Crimsonorblue22 And I didn't even have to look up the number...
Come on Salvy. Insurance.
Sat pm, game is when my son and gf's pic might be on.ππ
Well he put insurance in scoring position. Good enough.
So happy for salvy!!!π
Woooohoooo, r they rattled by lowly ole kc?
Home Runs? We don't need no stinkin' home runs.
Glad we, I mean you all, won't have to stay up til 1:00 tonight. What time did that game end anyways?
@wissoxfan83 About 1215
OoooooooorrrrrlandoπͺβΎοΈπ¨π¨π¨π¨
@wissoxfan83 Yeah, couldn't even celebrate as son and I went out to the range at 7 this morning.
@wissoxfan83 Will have to look at their schedule.
@Crimsonorblue22 Anybody who knows the Royals shouldn't be surprised. But New Yorker's aren't the smartest.
Oh my I love this team!ππππ
@Crimsonorblue22 I'll settle for that extra 4 ins runs OK ?!
@globaljaybird If you haven't already, I think we can start our celebrating now.
@wissoxfan83 game was like 5 hrs 13 minutes or so?
@globaljaybird how long was game last pm, 5 hrs and 13 mins?
Announcers have quieted
@Crimsonorblue22 I'm pretty sure the Sox-Stros marathon in 2005 ended around 1AM. THankfully I didn't have to work the next day.
Who said insurance?
That wasn't a sign of respect? Kidding me?
@Crimsonorblue22 Official game time: 5 hr 9 minutes
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.
2 more
Where the shift didn't work for us last night, working like a Swiss watch tonite.
Did the mets fans all buy the same hoodies?
Sounded like he said jimmy cueto
Go Cueto! Finish
ROCK CHALK ROYALS!!!
Last one sports fans... We're goin to the Big Apple up 2-0... Yeeeeeeaaaaaahhhhhhh!!!
That's what I wanted to see. No high 5's, but hugs for Cueto. Great game Johnny. Great game Royals.
Whoooooo hooo big advantage!!!!
Who said wood on the ball even if it's flyouts cause the hits will come?
Erin Andrews is good!
@Crimsonorblue22 HOT
Who did salvy get w/water?
@Crimsonorblue22 Cueto?
Go take game 3, let them have 4 & 5 and come home and finish it in game 6.
@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.
@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.
@Crimsonorblue22 FS1 just showed Cueto getting the love from Salvy.
He got the little munchkin with the bowtie too.
Rose still saying Royals in 5.
Did he just sat Yankees?
@globaljaybird ahhhπ
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.
Could be 2-2. Yeah right!
@Crimsonorblue22 He won't see much if any pt in NY. No DH.
@RexHudler1: Up 2-0!?! New York, you got to go! NYC bound, keep it up don't let up! #TakeTheCrown #WorldSeries2015
@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.
I can't seem them winning 2
@Crimsonorblue22 If the Royals let the fans get loud it could be tough. Much like Toronto. Northeast sports fans are the worse.
@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.
Go Royals! Win 2 as soon as possible! If they win the Series, the party will ensue, no matter where they clinch!
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.
@Crimsonorblue22 Should've told them fix it before the game starts or don't bother coming as you're switching to satellite or AT&T u verse.
Playoffs, pretty sweet
@Crimsonorblue22 about ran the battery flat on the phone but that's a damn cool video girl. Thanks for the link. & ROCK CHALK ROYALS!!!
@globaljaybird son sent it, gave me goosebumps!
@Crimsonorblue22 We must be on the same wavelength cause I was thinking of that very description as a reply to you. Good son-great PR MAN...I'd vote for him ! Betcha the old geezer in La. will enjoy that too. PDG !!!
@globaljaybird You damn straight I enjoyed it. WOW!!! I was thinking when watching the series with Houston it seems so long ago. Looking forward to the conclusion when the WS flag goes up the pole. Thanks for posting @Crimsonorblue22.
