Kudos to the Royals.

I just wanted them to keep me interested until training camp.

Then the first preseason game.

Then the first regular season game.

Now, this. Holy shit. I’m now HORNY for October baseball.

MLB app has Wacha listed as game 1 starter.

This is the right move. Wacha is a pro and he’ll handle those bright lights in NYC. Allows Ragans to go on regular rest for Monday. If we can just take at least one in the BX, I like our chances.

Yep, appears Ragans will go on Monday also.

Man if we come home 1-1, Game 3 will be insane in KC.

Win that one and push the Yankees to the brink with another home game…

Or 0-2 or 2-0

They seemed awake yesterday. 9 hits was pretty good. Of course, a couple of hits while the bases were loaded(twice) would have been nice

Royals pitching lineup is set up perfect.

Game 1 - Wacha solid vet to start in the Bronx
Game 2 - Ragans, the ace to either get the series tied or go up 2-0
Game 3 - Lugo at Kauffman
Game 4 - Wacha again
Game 5 - Ragans to close it out if needed.

Great play.

This is awesome, thanks.

I've seen the pine tar thing a million times of course and some stories around it, but not sure I've ever known the game was resumed.... and then WTF is with the clown show of throwing to 1st and 2nd base like Brett didn't tag one of them 3 weeks prior. :-) :-)

The clown show of going to each of the bases was Billy Martin shooting an angle. The umpiring crew on hand was not the same crew as before, so he was hoping to cause enough confusion to draw things out longer. However, the commissioner had anticipated this move and they had signed statements from the original crew that Brettt had touched every base.

Playoff Baseball is like crack.

As a casual fan of the sport, its hard to get invested in 1 game out of 162. Just doesn't have that impact.

But playoff baseball? Living and dying with every out and every pitch? Its exhilarating. So fun.

Billy Martin was such a cocksucker.

Our starting rotation is so stacked man lol
