That was a fantastic AB by WMB.
Got down early. Good discipline to battle back to 3-2 and gets a slow grounder for the infield hit.

Another lucky hit for WMB but his approach certainly looked good!

What are you talking about? Well, he didn't give up a run right away, there was no DP, and it's not Britton either. You know I was gonna be a smart ass but I will pass your not worth it. By the way Britton I was referring to was from yesterday's game . Same idea 6-4 . I wanted the K and a DP ball but didn't happen.

LOL at Orsillo going into his home run call on a flyout.

So is Farrell planning to have Tazawa go 2 innings again or what?

Tazawa is a beast. Boy I wish We had Baird back what a loss. I miss him.

Is Victorino eventually going to give up switch hitting altogether or is this just a phase? I've been wondering that myself. He seems to be playing it by feel right now. Batting right against some right handers and left vs others. Not sure what he's thinking. I believe that he has injury which is why he is batting RH primarily.

It's just another game however... with veteran big name P's, RS going for a split against a hot KC club creates a (playoff) atmosphere.
We'll see who can deliver the goods. I think Lackey will come through. Not so confident about RS bats but hopeful.

From what I rememberm Shields is always tough on us.

He has had excellent starts against the Red Sox but also there are some clunkers sprinkled in. We'll see what happens today.

Shields is almost nearly a reverse-splits guy because of his plus changeup, so I wouldn't be surprised if the Red Sox struggled offensively tonight.

Victorino is at it again (batting RH).

I am sorry but why is Nava still in the lineup?

Leadoff walk by Lackey to a guy who never walks. Not inspiring.

Royals took 15 straight pitches to start the game before Butler swung and fouled off the 16th. Never seen that before.

Definitely a "wait til he throws you a strike" approach.

Err... while he did walk the first two batters, he also got two called strikes on both of them and another on Butler. Lackey struggled with command but its not like he was super wild or anything.

Why is it so damn hard for our starters to give us good outings now?

Sox just getting schooled right now on the bases. KC knows Lackey is slow to the plate, and they can see he's struggling with control. Fugly.
