How About Those Royals!

[berettafan]

I'm still rooting for them. That was only game one! Six more to go!

I will say that Aioki play in right field last night that caught Posey at home was friggin textbook. Beautiful, fluid motion getting every bit of his momentum working for him......made Posey (or more correctly the 3rd base coach) look like a fool for even trying to get home. Neither was a fool...it's just that Aioki played the ball SO perfectly.

The ball took a perfect bounce off the wall too.

Well it can't be less.

[berettafan]

Could be 3

True, they might just finish up in SF. That play where they got Posey at the plate was just luck. Perfect bounce followed by an excellent throw. You have to be aggressive on the bases, sometimes it costs you, sometimes it forces an error.

Speaking of errrors, I would have called that one the Panda hit off the third baseman's glove an error, not a hit.

It's not over yet!

That's a little more like the baseball we've been watching here in KC for the last couple months!

Could still be 4 but they surely showed up to play last night!

Can't get over how young that pitcher looks.

On another note there is some great ready about Pence and how crazy he seems to be. Neat character.

I loved watching Pence when he was here with the Astros. He seems to be a genuine person and I respect his hustle on the field. As an added bonus do a search for Hunter Pence girlfriends, he was hooked up with a few different bikini models while here in Houston.

Cmon game seven and then a Royals win.

I am obviously a huge Royals fan, but After watching Pence bust his butt down the line last night after he struck out I'm now a fan. After the game when espn was interviewing him he didn't make any excuses he just talked about what a great time he was having playing in "that" atmosphere. You could really tell he loves baseball.

Late in the clinching game against the Cardinals, when it was tied, Pence got a meeting together among the three outfielders during a pitching change. He gave a pep talk, and said one of the three was going to win it in the ninth with a home run. Ishikawa proved him right.

Well, I said I want a 7-game series, since the other two recent Giants WS wins went 4-1 and 4-0 and were kind of boring. Bring it! KC is pretty good.

Looking forward to enjoying Game 4 live in SF... I got my tickets the old fashioned way, married into a family with season tickets

Nice! Someone called into a local radio show a few days ago, they had tickets for game 5 of the ALCS in KC. Talk about conflicted.

I'm conflicted as well. I have tickets for games 6 & 7 here in Kansas City but if we have a chance to close it out in San Fran I'd be all for it!
