LOL on cue the Royals fans are burying their own on Twitter. Rios is a total bum now and Ventura got buried as well. Yost is getting buried as well for not pinch hitting Morales for Rios, lol.

All the Royals fans are true second guessers on Twitter. As long as they are winning they are "the best fans in baseball." Idiot fans.

It's so funny because when they win, they brag about what great fans they are. These fans are brutal. Any loss regular season or postseason and they consider the offending players total bums. It's classic inning by inning game by game. They despise Ventura right now and love Cueto. A few days ago they wanted to run Cueto out of town.

They were praising Rios the other day; now they want his head on a platter. Basically KC thought it was over at 2-0 forgetting home field means a lot this time of year. This series is going 7 obviously.

Should I bet the house?

Very true. BTW, nobody has bandwagon fans like the cubs do.

Now we have a series.

 

The Alex Gordon out at third (even though another run scored)...and then not tying the game with the bases loaded and two outs with Rios up, quickly followed by the Morales brain cramp that should have been a double play ball and a three run lead instead of 9-3, that was all she wrote.

 

If the Mets go down 4-2, then the pressure is really on them not to go down 3-0.

 

Sets up an interesting match-up tmrw with Young's slow stuff...and KC tends to struggle more against lefties and Matz throws hard but not 95-99 typically.

 

Momentum only lasts as long as the next game's starter. Should be fun. Good for the sport of baseball to have some intrigue, especially keeping NYC interested.

Lol.

 

That means the series certainly isn't going 7.

 

Rios has been a clutch hitter most of the post-season, you're not going to come through every time obviously. It must seem that way to some KC fans.

 

Ventura wet the bed and they let the Mets off the hook early.

 

Nobody with the Royals forgot how good the Mets are at home. Except for casual fans who only show up to support their teams (like the Braves for 14 years) late in the season.

KC knows they can get to all three of the Mets' young pitchers.

 

They don't have that mental intimidation thing like with Bumgarner last year. That said, anything can and will happen in baseball. The series really becomes interesting if the Mets can win tmrw and put the pressure back on the Royals.

 

If KC had to use Cueto on the road to get the series back home in an elimination Game 5, that's when you would see true worry/concern/anxiousness.

 

Or being tied 3-3 and relying on Ventura in Game 7. At home though, there'd still be a high degree of confidence.

Sounds like every fanbase ever.

Ventura is an interesting case. I don't know who to compare him to on the Sox or in Sox history. He's been very inconsistent in this his second season. just didn't have it tonight. Mentally he should have been on top of the world. Staked to a 2-0 lead, no pressure on him. He got lit up by the veteran Grandy and Murphy. Boom.

 

KC goes with the Princeton graduate tomorrow, the smart gritty hurler whose stuff isn't near as good as Ventura. Mets have to be considered favorites.

He had two one run leads and gave them both up, 1-0 and then 3-2.

 

Matz doesn't throw quite as hard and is a lefty, and southpaws give KC some problems because of Hosmer, Moustakas, Gordon and Morales as a switch hitter being better against RHP. Plus Zobrist now.

 

It will also be a storyline how Volquez responds to his father's death in Game 5. And Cueto will write the final story of his KC career in a theoretical Game 6.

Frank Thomas on the post game show

The cast of Fox' Pre and Post has an interesting makeup. A Hall of Famer who hasn't been particularly timid opining on PEDs in baseball , and two would-be Hall of Famers; one a degenerate gambler who gambled on the team he was managing , the other a compulsive liar who rode his way to the top of several prestigious MLB records via PEDs.
