Play ball!

Just like they planned it. Lull the Royals into a false sense of confidence by loading the bases without recording an out, then shut the door.

Parker starting the way he started a week ago against the Metsies.

Parker doing better, but the third inning killed him a week ago.

Joining late. Still 0-0. Ok.

Sykora sounds very mature for his age.

Going against an inept offense helps

Sykora talking about taking 10 days off and then starting his offseason routine. It made me think of the old days when the owners ruled. A player would finish the season and then go sell cars or if you're Jim Lemon you go behind the cash register in your store in Hyattsville.

It looks like the woman behind home plate is wearing a bathrobe.

Lol, yes she does. Maybe she was running late and didn't have time to dress.

Royals strand a couple more.

I only just noticed that Salvy was playing 1B.

Green in the booth. Franny should bait him into taking a swing at him. 40% chance he'll miss

JCA-CrystalCity · « **Reply #16 on:** September 24, 2024, 08:39:55 pm »

I remember this Parker

It wasn't pretty but 5 shutout innings is 5 shutout innings.

Royals are really slumping. Their regular season was surely a scam.

Nasim Nunez OBP up to .381

So Parker is done for the year.

Slateman · « **Reply #23 on:** September 24, 2024, 08:52:26 pm »

Damn, Keibert getting after it tonight

That was a good throw by Ruiz
