Royals Win In Walkoff Fashion After Inge Error In Extras

(26-19)

@

(22-23)

Ryan Perry shows his frustration after being saddled with the loss after an unearned run.

I had a whole update typed out. IE crashed. Not in the mood to type it all back out. It was the bottom of the 10th inning and Coco Crisp bunted down the 3rd base line. Brandon Inge tried to bare hand it and ended up overshooting Cabrera at 1st. Crisp makes it all the way to 3rd. Then Alberto Callaspo hits one into shallow right and they walk off with the win. :headbang:

Come on Perry, step up brah, can't be givin up walk offs to KC

 

[mfbmike]

Read the short recap. He didn't do shit wrong. He pitched 2 innings with 1 hit and 0 earned runs. :/

D12, tell me something I don't know. :irked:

Series Review:

Needless to say, it looks like we left our bats in the hotel room. Pitching staff did it's job. We just didn't bring in enough runs to put us in a position to get wins.​

Inge is a P.O.S

I never liked him

 

[mfbmike]

He's good but he's cold right now. I just think he was tired or something and considering the game headed into extras he just got lazy and messed up.

He makes amazing defensive plays for me pretty often. But like I said, his bat is lacking right now. Well, he obviously isn't the only one.

Inge was clutch with runners in scoring position today, with a homer and 5 RBI's on 2 base hits.​

 

[Justo]

at least Adam Eaton sucks in this chise too lol.

 

[mfbmike]

haha, yeah. I busted it open early on with him on the mound. That game was rediculous. Only 2nd time this season I've gotten to double digits in runs iirc.

FUCK! I need a day off. The game is making me rest like 4 of my players for game 3. :rofl:

The next game is the last game of the month of May btw.

 

[Justo]

they seriously need to adjust the stamina thing lol.
