Lima looks tough tonight...

Lima's got a s***load of movement on his pitches so far, our guys have to be patient and get some counts and make him get the ball up.

good.  I didn't see it.  Where did it hit him in the head?

 

Apparently it hit him on the right side of the face...

 

From ESPN...

 

"After he was hit, Clement remained on the ground and barely moved for about five minutes before he was lifted onto the stretcher and immobilized with a neck brace. Replays showed the force of Crawford's liner knocked the All-Star pitcher completely off his feet."

Lima can definitely get in a rhythm and keep the ball down if you help him out. Don't get me started on tonight's lineup though. I have no problem getting your benchers some playing time....but why all in the same game basically?

It is Lima Time tonight. Bad night for the "B" Line up

Haha. We couldn't score enough runs last night. Looks like we'll be scrapping for anything tonight. Hitting is so contageous.

I hope the players realize they shouldn't swing the bat. Anyone who's taken a hack has looked bad. Just let him walk you, because he will.

It's Lima Time because of the "B" lineup. They are directly related.

Burly looks good....and by good I mean not so good. Throwing a lot of pitches.

why the hell is harris starting tonight. he started last night. Ugh i hate these B Lineups that Ozzie puts out.

Is it possible for Timo to catch the ball with two hands?

Willie showing he has absolutely no baseball instincts yet again. That dumbass better not cost us any runs here.

Willie Harris is retarded....

Willie...ha.

Is it possible for Timo to catch the ball with two hands?

Who cares, he hasn't dropped one.

Idiot Willie. When he starts running back to first throw to Paul and get hte force, then you have stais in a run down.

i think he is still thinking about he is the next Brian Roberts.

Willie Harris looks like he should be starting for the Royals...

I hope no one turns this into a "Fathom b****ing just to b**** post", but against someone like Lima who makes a ton of mistakes, you want hitters in the lineup who will make him pay for hanging a slider, etc. A great example was the 2nd batter of the game, where Ozuna got a 2-0 hanger, and just hit a weak flyball to CF. Besides the fact that it should have been a hit-and-run, most players in baseball would have hit that pitch a mile.

Nice pitch.... how about getting hit off Lima!

I'm glad I'm not an English teacher...

Dude, its the Royals. We can afford to empty the bench against these scrubs.

Lay-off the change-up and you will have base runners...

Stupid Willie gets a stupid K.

That was vintage Willie from last season. Work the count well, and then take the 3-2 pitch that's a clear strike.
