No homer but Whit nails the 2nd pitch for a single tonight so it's 2-0 already on a base knocker from Hoz. And I just got an email from one of my sons tellin me that Mitch Lightfoot's younger bro Miles has posted within the hour on twitter that he is proud to have committed to West Point. And now DA MOOSE JUST JACKED A 2 RUN DINGER #25 for the 4-0 in the first! When you're hot, you're damn lava hot !!!

4 run 🏃 lead for Vargas may be a lead pipe cinch.

Dr vargy slipping w/the scalpel.

@Crimsonorblue22 I guess so. Don't walk Zoombya... Vargy don't have it tonight.

Gonna try and manage the whole game but have to get g-baby at 6 in the morning so up at 5. Watching top of 1st to see what I missed.

Vargas not looking good.

How about DA MOOOSE! Holy crap. I'll be at the K next friday after the break. I hope they're still rolling. These guys are starting to show some of the intangibles (having fun!). I worry about the pitching, but no quitters in the lineup. AL Central sucks, so who knows. Could end up first or last at this point.

Not sure how to do the emojjis, but younger Lightfoot at West Point is thumbs up.:cartwheel_tone5: :+1:

well, this has taken a turn for the worse.

Vargas curve ball is hit and miss.

Moose in a zone. That ball must look like an 80 mph softball to him.

Hit and miss... right. Except for a couple pitches, not that bad of an inning for Vargas.

@globaljaybird How about that RF ball girl coming up with that Moose foul line drive in the first?

@brooksmd I'm in Springfield in the am so I won't last last either. @Crimsonorblue22 may have to bring this one home.

Don't know if Miranda has found it or more Royals hitters chasing dirtballs and shoulder high fastballs.

@brooksmd DK but Vargas is getting beat like a piñata Gotta day off tmro so Ned should use the hook before this gets too far outta hand..

@brooksmd :field_hockey: :+ 100:

Hey @approxinfinity in case you missed it Moose got #25 in the 1st tonite. Only 11 from Royals record.

@brooksmd girls rule!💃💪⚾️

Not seeing much bat control. Soler swung at 2 shoulder high fastballs and then watched a thigh high change-up.

Cain reaching for outside balls again.

And LOCAIN KABOOM!!!

With results that I can put up with some poor discipline. Tied up! Yeah!!!

@globaljaybird Miranda about done.

@Crimsonorblue22 No LoCain train?

Wow, great play by Gordo an Whit.

@brooksmd wow. I'm going to be pulling for him in the HR derby. Show the young guys how it's done!

@brooksmd my ac broke down after 5!😡84 in here

Whew😳

@Crimsonorblue22 I got 2 small window units for emergencies if you want to come down and get them.

Put the frickin phone away and pay attention to the game.

Losses by both the Tribe and Twins = golden opportunity.

@brooksmd 🚙

Dang!⚾️😳

Salvy boom!

SALVY KABOOM!!! Royals 8-6 top 10th.

@brooksmd we, including the 2 lil ones, have tickets for aug 5. Pm game, shade side

I should be use to heat by then!

Keep the line moving boys

Whit usually gets his $.25 worth at the plate.

Alrighty now it's Tabasco time. 3 up an out for da sweep.

@brooksmd your man

WOOSH dats 1.

2 outs

@brooksmd ole! 1/2 game back! Amazing! Where r the quitters?

Game Set an Sweep!!!

@brooksmd have fun tmrw

@Crimsonorblue22 She is a bucket of fun.

@Crimsonorblue22 ttfn

Seems like these guys aren't ready to leave KC quite yet... The front office owes it to the fans to chase one more. Time to buy. We need another starter and another bullpen arm. The first 6 batters in the lineup right now are absolutely killing it. As long as one of the bottom 3 guys are hitting, the offense is solid.

Dayton has done a good job in the past of bringing in good pen arms during the waiver period though. And with Duffy back we aren't hurting for a starter. Essentially what I'm saying, don't sell the farm for someone this year. If there is a right deal at a right time, do it. Like Bartolo Colon, could be a nice pickup for only $254k.

@Kcmatt7 no! Not him! He doesn't fit in

@Crimsonorblue22 Oh he would so fit in! You just don't like him because he is so fat. He's funny and goofy! Players would give him a hard time. He could be a 5th starter or long relief guy. Essentially Chris Young's role with a better old guy.

Its super low risk low reward. If he fits in keep him if he doesn't it cost you nothing and let him go.

Who are you willing to trade for someone better? Mondesi? Torres? Cuthbert? Those are probably our best trade pieces right now and all look like they will be important pieces of the future. DM is going to have to find some Diamonds in the rough.

@Kcmatt7 maybe🤔 I don't want to get rid of young guys

@Crimsonorblue22 @globaljaybird Our day off cost us a half game as both the Tribe and Twins won today. On a positive note only a half game behind NYY for top WC spot. But we ain't settling for a WC spot.

@brooksmd got my ac fixed today!

@Crimsonorblue22

Glad to hear. I had my AC down a couple of weeks ago and it costed me $400 for 3 pounds of Freon, a ripoff no doubt but what can you do when your AC us down and the temperature is high?

@Crimsonorblue22 That's why I have kept 2 small window units cause if ever have to wait a day or 2 at least the bedroom will be cool for sleeping. And you can usually pick them up for under $100.

@brooksmd think I could put one in my window? Or do u just plug it in a 110?

@Crimsonorblue22 Yep, if you have normal up and down windows, sit it on the window sill, close the window down on top of it, pull the slides out on each side of the a/c unit to seal the opening and plug into 110. There's not much weight to them.

@brooksmd crank

@Crimsonorblue22 Did that mean crank windows? You could get a portable room a/c for your bedroom. They are a little more expensive, and just be careful the drain hose doesn't get plugged.

@mayjay thx everyone! Hopefully I'm good now.
