please happen. They need to do all kinds of bouncing back. Pitching hasn't been bad but the Mets need to be able to hit mediocre pitching, 2 weak hits obviously won't cut it

Those Mets starting pitchers just don't match up well with a team that doesn't strike out.
This series is starting to become predictable.

As a Reds fan it's nice to see Cueto dealing tonight (and Volquez going last night). Just want to see the Royals win for those two.
I bet people ( windu probably) said the same thing after the Braves went up 2-0 on the Yankees in '96.

They pretty much have to at this point. If KC takes one game, I think this is over. I'll stick with my Royals in 6 prediction, but it could be over sooner.
Johnny Cueto > deGrom in hair and pitching.

You do realize that they are the new cameras right?
It's a World Series game... I would be shocked if people weren't taking pictures.
First time pitching to the fucking Royals :lol

Indeed, crushing on Salvy as usual.
Well, shit. They can take the games at home but it's gonna be tough. The offense went back to what we were seeing in like June, I don't know how that's happening now and not against Kershaw/Greinke/Arrieta.
Also all you jabronies complaining about Met fans coming out of the woodwork don't seem to have a problem with it happening with KC, it's just what happens

So what happened last year against Bum? It's about execution, and they aren't getting done. Not all contact is good contact, but when you leave fat ones over the middle of the plate your shit is going to get pushed in.

MadBum was not a strike out pitcher, and our line up was not as good as it is this year.

Naw. I love the Mets fans.
It's just hilarious to see the Jays fans bandwagoning on with you guys. They just couldn't take a loss.

Why has Cespedes cooled off? Or is he just streaky?
Streaky + bum left shoulder.

Being injured doesn't help.
I hope not. I want to Thor to show how shit that trade was back in 2012.
He's not a strikeout pitcher even though he averages about k/9 9 and he was close to that in the 2014 series, but yeah, not a strikeout pitcher.
bruh. you're talking about like two Jays fans here doing that. there are probably just as many (like me) who would prefer the Royals win. Because AL is da best.

Alright, alright!
Hell, I'm bandwagoning KC .. But I hated the Mets before we lost to them. The Royals are a likable bunch.
He did manage 9.1K/9 last season.

Huh, shows you my knowledge of anything not Kansas City.
Always figured he was a finesse pitcher that got contact outs.

Not even that, meaning more the people who are all of a sudden die-hards. It happens though, hype is a powerful force, and the Royals are a fun team.
He actually upped it to 9.6 K/9 this season.

It's fucking depressing. Like I have literal depression that's cropped up in two days.

i've been begging for over 5 years.
This happens in all sports for all teams it's certainly not exclusive to the Mets.

Don't be bummed!
You guys played good.
All us Royals fans are still nervous as fuck... It's not over till it's over.
What? There's nothing likeable about the Royals. They're repulsive.
please don't lie like that. That was a pretty terrible showing, tbh. Serious bouncing back needs to be done if the Mets want an actual shot at this. I'm not going to give up though, this has been to enjoyable of a season to stop now.

Mets fans reminding me that Dolphins fan comic page.
You guys will be so wired come Friday.

I watched the Royals suck dick for my entire life. When we swept through the post season last year on some cinderella bullshit I never thought we belonged.
I was wrong, clubs dont make it to the WS on luck.
Keep your head up and enjoy what they've accomplished. Series aint over by a long shot.

Haha fair enough.
I guess what I'm trying to get across is that it's not over. Royals are capable of blunders as well.
Most of what happened tonight is our batters. We don't really have a weak point in our line up so getting past that is always difficult.

Small market, developed talent club full of good natured guys who never give up.
Disgusting.
This post is repulsive.
I threw up in my mouth just reading this tbh.

I mean I know we have talent but that series of never missing a swing was what really got to me. I mean damn...
I know we can come back but when was the last team down 2 in the WS? Its just tough.
You guys played great, and I know the Royals aren't an unlikable as a team I just get clouded when they're facing mine and every little thing is reason to hate the team.
damn right, it comes with the territory. I still remember being down in school in 2000 and people thinking "what the hells wrong with him"
I mean the pennant is still more than I ever expected but I still want more.
