Mark freakin Redmond beats out an infield hit. Great play Gooch. It has been all downhill since his acrobatic play last year.

 

The Twins ALWAYS seem to take advantage of any mistakes they're presented with...unfortunately, Ozuna/Cintron/Mack aren't any better at 2B.

 

 

We're closing in on 7 blown saves...great!

I can't believe we let one of the slowest people in baseball get an infield hit because our s***ty 2b rushed the throw.

And we're really in trouble thanks to Iguchi and MacDougal.

Not Dye, letting a ball go over his head. Again!!

Shouldn't Dye have been playing deeper to avoid the tying run getting a double?

Twins' announcers complaing Royals traded MacDougal and Sisco within the division.

 

Royals also had Burgos and Affeldt, should have been a great pen.

 

 

yeah I was listenign to that too. They wouldn't have a problem if it was them who had both.

3 chances to slap a base hit and tie this game?

 

I like their chances. I just hope we don't fall behind.

shocking. mcdoogal gets pounded.

 

 

And there's the essence of the trade...against really good teams, in difficult circumstances, Mac buckles. It's why the Royals parted with him so easily, he's not reliable when you really need him to get an out, his control just isn't good because he has no idea where his FB is going.

 

This Rabe kid has some pop...better be careful.

1 out 4-3

4-3 now, at least we have 1 out though.

Looks like Thornton is becoming more reliable than MMac these past few games.

Thanks again Gooch and MMac.

ozzie didn't have a RH ready. brilliant.

Only the 3, 4, 5 hitters in the Twins lineup has hit a homer this year. Any bets that it'll change this series if not this game?

Oh you mean the guy with a 3.09 ERA and 1.20 WHIP coming off a 1.80 ERA and 1.00 WHIP last season with the Sox.

 

"Shocking?" :huh:

I still am confused as to why Dye wasn't playing deeper. We desperately need a late inning defensive replacement for him....and Iguchi ( :P ).

Give me a f***ing break. One ball was hit hard that inning. Buckling my ass... I love when people here become psychiatrists...

I don't like that Ozzie is using the whole bullpen this inning. What if they tie it? then 3 guys are unavailable for the rest of the game.

MacDougal's career ERA vs the Twins now is over 5.50.

Its amazing how Aardsma is now the guy brought in for high leverage situations compared to MMac.

I don't think Dye was playing that deep, because Bartlett has no power...well, except against us ... isn't Bartlett the punch-and-judy hitter that hit his only homer off Contreras last year in a late inning win for the Twins v. us?

Ozzie walked right into a better situation for the Twins.

yes

 

Don't give in here.

Does that really mean that much after surgeries, a new pitching coach, a new manager, and a new role?

let's get him Aardsma.

Find a single Royals' fan who is upset Mac is gone...I dare you.

 

I've lived in KC and watched his entire career, he's not good against the best teams.
