🏀 KuBuckets Archive

I've been a Cubs fan since 1957 and was beginning to think I'd go to my grave without ever seeing the Cubs play in a World Series. Four more wins to complete the dream.

Lester's one fault as a pitcher is his refusal to hold a runner at first.

@brooksmd get your taco

Smart at bat. Bases loaded let inside pitch hit you.

ROYALS World Series CHAMPS!!!

@Eric-san long time no see! How r u? Ready for KU bb?

@Crimsonorblue22 Long time!! I'm doing wonderful, how are you doing?!

Haven't been this excited for KU BBall since... last year!

@Eric-san good!

I miss zobrist

My most favorite Royal from last year - Zobrist,
My least favorite Royal from last year - Cueto.

Gotta be frustrating to infielders when you have a runner stuck between bases and your pitcher refuses to throw the ball. Thankfully Ross/Baez saved his butt this time.

Lester is getting squeezed tonight.

Gore, Dyson and Cain would have a field day against Lester.

@Eric-san Yeah, if he had just thrown to first a couple times in the 1st inning to keep Lindor off balance he probably would've got out of it unscathed. But he let Lindor keep him off balance which led to the walk which messed up his head that led to the 2nd walk.

AL Central rules!

@wissoxfan83 No thanks to the ChiSox.

@brooksmd 2005!

Damn drum

@wissoxfan83 2006 - 2016?

@brooksmd Wasn't Lester the Oakland pitcher the Royals beat to make the playoffs in 2014?

@globaljaybird Yep and :poop:

Bingo ! He wasn't the losing pitcher but he did give up 6 ER - http://www.baseball-reference.com/postseason/2014_ALWC.shtml ↗
