I go to take a dump, come back, and were down 2-0. What happened?

We pitch out and Marson still screws it up. 4 stolen bases tonight.

if our damn catchers would pull their heads out of their asses, might still be a tie game

I'm not sure if it's all Marson or not but that's the FIFTH stolen base already! Only through the fourth inning. It's like there's a little Leager behind the plate or something.

Put up a run or 2 and keep this close, I think KC bullpen can be had.

Well, well, well.....can't win them all!

As far as the Choo situation.....you guys are entitled to your opinion, yes he is one of our best players. I just feel he needs a day off and that is my opinion.


The Royals are running like it's a track meet and we haven't done a thing to prevent them from stealing bases. Gomez pitched as I expected him to.....I knew we weren't going to get a great outing.....figured we would have to score 8+ runs to win this one.

Anything can happen but I think this one is over.

Yeah, I didnt like this match-up. Taking the game last night was huge though.

Id love to go 4-3 on this road trip.

Hey we all said we wanted to take 3 of 4 in the series.....we are right on track. haha

We need Tomlin back asap though.....Gomez has a lot to learn still (evidence of 5 stolen bases)

Thats why I hate 4 game sets, honestly. Its so hard to take 3/4. Id love to, but Ill be happy with a split here and 2/3 in Minny...then come home and try to do some damage.

I didn't expect the Indians to win this game but did expect them to at least score a run or two. Randy Johnson..err Greg Maddux...er Bruce Chen is carving us up.

Talbot?

And yes Gomez needs to learn to keep runners close. Marson has a great arm so giving up 5 stolen bases is just dreadful.

We make Chen look like a hall of famer.

And Davies and Hocheaver. Seems like all those bums on KC always get the best of us lol.

Marson makes the scoreline more respectable for the time being.

Bottom of the order putting some runs on the board, keeping us withing striking distance once they go to the bullpen.

Runners on the corner, and let Brantley steal to put 2 in scoring position for Asdrubal. Oh well. Need the meat of the order to start to hit for this game. Probably not gonna happen.
