I met Royals great Willie Wilson a few years ago at Spring Training. Great guy. He was signing autographs in exchange for donations to a charity. The game was slow and we got to talking a bit and I told him I knew the Rojas family. We took a selfie and texted Victor and the next thing I knew I was the conduit for a text chat between two longtime friends.
There have been a lot of great moments as a result of writing for this site. I hadn’t shared that one before, I don’t think.
Gamethreads are like the VIP lounge, so I’ll drop it here.
Hooray! I’m glad for Detmers
Nice game
Teo’s got that Trea Turner slide perfected.
But unnecessary.
Robo umps PLEASE!
Monty is an idiot. It looks we won’t see Kenley because he brought him into a non-save situation yesterday.
O’Hoppe had a chance to be K victim number 10.
We held the line after almost giving it away!
Alright, Chafin. About time you impress me (outside of your looks, of course).
That lead off walk will not come back to bite. Right?
Lead off walks are awesome.
We are the kings of the leadoff walk.
I didn’t catch much of Dana’s start. How’d he look ?
He was strong, 1 ER in 5 innings
Wasn’t rattled by a bloop single and error either.
Very good. It gave me Hopeium!
I’m sorry if they blow this, I just turned the game back on (to immediately see that inning ending pop out).
Tar and feathers incoming! Don’t answer the door if you know what’s good for you!
Move over Zach, Jo is the face of the franchise!
Let’em share the spotlight.
Joseph I want your baby!
This is what happens when you put a ball in play. Yay Jo!
Exactly
Adell!!
Trout would have struck out already.
At least twice.
I would love for Jo to deliver
Moncada shows his wheels c
KC RF whiffs on that rocket.
