This is where the one game format can be so cruel =(

Wait all that time to get back and it's all fucked away in one inning

I wish they would make it a 3 game series in the city with the higher record.

 

[geeko]

Well that opened up real quick. Sorry royals.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

I want a three game set this is unfair!

Nah, keep it how it is. Gives that extra incentive to win your division.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

Nah, keep it how it is. Gives that extra incentive to win your division.

but a three game series has just as much urgency and is a bigger penalty. you have to win two games and you would have to throw your very best out there.

 

[Josh5890]

Fair point but my thinking is that with a few extra days off the division winners can reset their rotation. The wild card winners are stuck with next man up.

Royalols

 

[Askani]

Well, there's always next year, KC.

Please. Glass is going to go "Well, made playoffs. Why spend more?" instead of spending to win the division race that you were in up until the last day.

I wish it was true, but I really doubt it.

 

[lazybones18]

sigh

 

[Corran Horn]

Talk about completely panicking and overmanaging. Why managers do this shit in the postseason and get away from the stuff that worked for them all year I will never understand.

Not everyone can be a genius like Bochy

The on-field reporter (I think Verducci?) mentioned during the top of the inning that the Royals GM or owner basically said they weren't gonna be a big player in free agency.

 

[BFIB]

Well...at least the A's won't have the Tigers in the division round.

 

[droopy]

Some of the best relievers in the MLB? Better put in a rookie starter.

 

[Lambtron]

Royals should hire Gardy after they fire Yost into the sun.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

.

Safe

 

[JDHarbs]

This is a bullpen pitcher, Yost!

 

[Duane Cunningham]

And here's Hererra, three headed monster #1 spitting hot fire like always. WHY didn't Yost put him in instead of Ventura??

Yeah, you go with what got you there.

 

[Mighty Chin]

Whew. No Verlander.

 

[Carpe Libertatem]

Ventura pitched on Sunday too. That move made zero sense.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Hey TBS I'd love to see a replay of that great play by Moose, but hey why don't you just show a bunch of slo-mo sad faces instead?

 

[kris.]

and out comes the alcohol. ughhhhh.

 

[Syrinx]

So which baseball "experts" will make excuses for Yost and say "well hindsight is 20/20" and the rest of the usual bullshit?

 

[Blearth]

Whew. No Verlander.

I would love to face Verlander again in the playoffs!

 

[JDHarbs]

Alex has had to lead off way too many innings today.

 

[BFIB]

TBS loves those somber faces. Takes me back to the WCW days when swerves took place.

 

[Nafai1123]

Just got home. Was listening to the radio during the 5 run 6th. Let's go Oakland!

[BFIB]

Royals gotta do something here....

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Six runs to work with. Might as well send out Davis and Holland in the 8th & 9th. But then again who knows what the hell Ned will do.

 

[Macattk15]

Ned Yost really is the worst looking back at his boneheaded moves on the internet.

http://www.fangraphs.com/blogs/a-few-pieces-of-advice-for-ned-yost/

He couldn't even follow Fangraphs ... just use the relievers!

 

[Lee Chaolan]

Fuck. And whose stupid idea was it to start the post season in September so we STILL haven't had October baseball in now 30 years?

Yikes...at least the Indians WC game was in Oct last year ;o

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Watch out Angels. I have a feeling the As will destroy you.

 

[Syrinx]

TBS guys already eulogizing the Royals season.

 

[BFIB]

I'm still scratching my head on why he took Shields out so fast.

 

[DietRob]

Damn, should somebody open a thread in OT about the Royals getting their $h17 pushed in?

 

[Syrinx]

Is there any chance Shields returns to KC after Yost pulled that bullshit? It wasn't likely in the first place, that may have just killed it.

That inning almost reminded me of 2002 ws game 6.

The comeback begins!

Keep it going, KC.

Not going to get ahead of myself, but will this hypothetically be the biggest comeback in Wild Card history?

Game of inches. Holy shit.
