Royals finally get a big lead and it rains out.
Royals finally get a big lead and it rains out.
Tough break especially for a team that is trying to squeeze out as many wins as possible.
"They asked me if I wanted the ball in Game 6, and I said yes. I'll always say yes. That's what I did with Jack McKeon. I told him, 'Let me see how I feel tomorrow.' I went out, did a long toss, came in and said, 'I'll pitch, I want it, I want to do it.' And it ended up working out." -Josh Beckett
Complete bullcrap rule to wipe out a 6-1 lead. The game should be continued from that point on the next day. Neither the A's or Royals needed to fly tonight or tomorrow morning.
Well unless the weather is drastically different in KC from where I live or it changes before game time, the game will probably get rained out today too.
They need to fly today....it's been rescheduled as part of a doubleheader on Friday August 18thOriginally Posted by realmofotalk
It's been raining here nonstop for the past few days. When it was raining in Lincoln, its raining in Kansas City.
Detroit 4, Kansas City 1
KC has a lot of fight but their talent isnt there yet. They only managed to get 2 doubles and a bunch of singles of offense though.

Don't worry, they fired their hitting coach and got some new guy. Maybe now they'll get more....ahhh nevermind.
They might get more doubles now that they have a hitting coach. But Jesus couldnt help this offense right now.

No but Brett, McRae, White, Otis, and Wilson could. Wait...wrong era.
How about DeJesus? It'll be nice to get him back. Maybe in a couple of years when the lineup is something like Dejesus, Teahan or someone, Gordon, Butler, Huber.
Then they would need to work on that pitching of theirs.

Once the Royals could pick and develop good pitchers without even trying. Now they can't develop them at all.
Wow, their pitching is pathetic right now. You think there will be any improvement at all?
