It was one of our most exciting games of the year.  Seeing a bumb from Triple AAA Tyler Tolbert—the last guy on our roster—get the record for 12 consecutive hits in 12 consecutive plate appearances!!   That energized our whole team. 

16-12, what a crazy score.  Senga looks good, because you always think the Asian guys are never going to make a mistake, but we certainly got to him.  I like that your team uses an opener.  I think that strategy makes a lot of sense. 

Your lineup seems to be struggling after the top two-three guys in the lineup.

...we got to see/hear Eric Hosmer call the game as color commentator for the KC broadcast so he kept recalling memories from being in the NY stadium in 15.  It was probably the most entertaining game the Royals have had this year

I think the Royals are hot right now and energized by Tolbert.  We may sweep the series and restore some small bit of hope for our season before the All-Star break

it was sad to see my guy Lugo roughed up I'm not gonna lie...looks like he's been struggling a bit this season

the good thing is we have a couple of kids Carson Benge a 23 year old outfielder and AJ Ewing a 21 year old outfielder who have given up a bit of a spark

and Soto has been Soto one of the best offensive players in baseball

as far as the Royals I am really looking forward to seeing Witt Jr. and Caglione up close tomorrow, I hope they are both in the lineup

and Michael Wacha is scheduled to pitch...he was with us in 2020 the 60 game joke of a season...after he left here he became a good solid pitcher again

Yeah I forgot to mention your guy Lugo.  That's pretty cool you got two X-Mets this series.

solid outing tonight by Christian Scott one of our young pitchers who is coming off Tommy John surgery

he and Nolan Mclean give us the best shot at winning a game...basically we have a good chance to win 2 out of every 5 games which isn't a recipe for success

I'm so pissed man... it's like immediately after our most exciting game last night, we have to have a total downer the next night.  What a buzzkill, smh

...yeah, we couldn't get to Scott.  Seems the Mets have found something with that guy. 

Mets struggled most the night offensively.  I'd never even heard of that guy we had on the mound, I still don't know what the hell was going on with that, and somehow he held the Mets to zero earned runs.  Then you got to our bullpen and the Mets bats finally broke out there at the end.  But I really don't think it was much of a good game for either team -- but when you win it feels good so I'm sure your happy enough with it.

Wacha tomorrow night, he better have a great start since he got chosen for the All-Star game and needs to look good going into it (and then that may mean he's not allowed to pitch at the All-Star game because I heard there is a rule about not wearing guys arms out) and then going to see how Jac Caglione does in the Homerun Derby, but All-Star game just isn't what it used to be like back in the day when Bo Jackson and Wade Boggs were hitting back to back homers.  Yawn... wake me up when the second half of the season starts.
