We're making tons of contact, this doesnt feel out of reach. We really need a quick inning here.

Lets go KC

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

Damn Hosmer demolished that ball.

 

[jman2050]

Bumgarner is wild, but Royals let him off the hook.

BABIP giveth BABIP taketh

 

[Xamdou]

Damn that Blanco catch to save the 1st inning! 3-0 still go Giants!

 

[Branduil]

Also, James Shields shows once again that his reputation is better than his results.

 

[tim1138]

Royals got a taste of their own medicine on Hosmer's hit. This might be the two best defensive clubs in baseball in this series.

 

[Dominican Power]

Haaa

 

[Wellscha]

The second inning starts, we can mount a comeback, Don't lose hope!

 

[Doogdogg]

Shields really sucks in big games.

 

[devilhawk]

A ground ball. Good to see.

 

[Askani]

James has been having shakey first innings for a few games now. He should be good at least through four-five now if he settles down and his trends continue.

Also, gay marriage proposal in that Samsung commercial? Nice! Take that, America!

 

[Little Green Yoda]

The second inning starts, we can mount a comeback, Don't lose hope!

I envy your optimism and naivety.

 

[Tyreny]

1 pitch 1 out

 

[Wellscha]

I envy your optimism and naivety.

Dude, I was 18 months old when the Royals won the World Series.

I'm 30 years old, you can't take that optimism from me!

 

[Tyreny]

Posey's face makes me angry

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Even year Giants crush all hopes and dreams unless you are a SF fan lol.

 

[Dominican Power]

The Dodgers let this happen.

 

[jman2050]

That second out was discouraging.

Score runs Royals plz.

 

[lazybones18]

1-2-3 inning

 

[JDHarbs]

1-2-3 inning. If Shields keeps this up we can easily get back into this. We've come back from worse.

 

[Fox318]

KC bats need to get to work

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

1-2-3 inning. If Shields keeps this up we can easily get back into this. We've come back from worse.

No you haven't. It's the Giants.

 

[tim1138]

Maybe Country Breakfast can get something started for the Royals.

 

[Dmncnby2k9]

No you haven't. It's the Giants.

What does this mean? Even year "curse"?

 

[Jack Scofield]

The rules about going against the Royals. If you get more than 2 runs, it's an automatic win. So Giants have already won.

Giants have already scored 3. Royals are done tonight. They can barely even score 2 in an entire game.

No you haven't. It's the Giants.

I'm beginning to think that you're actively trying to jinx the Giants, haha.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

What does this mean? Even year "curse"?

Bruce Bochy made a deal with the devil. Let me win every other year for the rest of my career and I will give you the gigantic soul living in my gigantic fucking head.

 

[JDHarbs]

COUNTRY BREAKFAST!

 

[tim1138]

There you go Country Breakfast!

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

I'm beginning to think that you're actively trying to jinx the Giants, haha.

I have acted like this in all 4 Giants World Series that they've played in since I was a kid. Works everytime, except in 2002 when it worked until Dusty Baker ruined my childhood.

 

[Wellscha]

Country Breakfast proves you wrong!

 

[Doogdogg]

let's get back into this, Royals.

 

[Little Green Yoda]

Wow, Butler is slow.

 

[Syphon Filter]

outta here kc lol

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Dude, I was 18 months old when the Royals won the World Series.

Eh, if that's the case the Royals had a drought 20-ish years shorter than the Giants did.

There are Giants fans who were born, lived their entire lives, and died without seeing their team win the World Series during their 53 years drought, which was the 2nd longest in MLB until they ended it in 2010.

 

[jman2050]

This is some bullshit.

 

[lazybones18]

dammit

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Country Breakfast proves you wrong!

Country Breakfast proves us right!

 

[Branduil]

Perez is the worst.

 

[Sir Alemeth]

Phew.

 

[Jack Scofield]

Some pretty good hits by the Royals.

Meanwhile, there are some fans who have never seen their team win a World Series and never will.

 

[Tempesta di Fuoco]

Yeah, I feel bad for any Royals fans born in the mid 80s or later too.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

Meanwhile, there are some fans who have never seen their team win a World Series and never will.

The only team that had a longer drought than the Giants did was the Cubs who recently...

...nevermind.

edit: I'm actually wrong here, the Indians have a longer active drought still than the Giants did. They were #3 when they ended it in 2010. There have apparently been historically longer droughts though.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

STOP TALKING TO JAKE PEAVEY GAWD

 

[themidnightsun156]

now that was close

 

[jman2050]

Cain covers so much damn ground it's ridiculous. That should not be a "routine" catch for anyone.

 

[lazybones18]

It's Cain!

 

[JDHarbs]

Every time a Giant connects like that I nearly have a heart attack. Love how big our ballpark is.

 

[Duane Cunningham]

Okay, one run in each of the next four innings is a pretty reasonable goal.

 

[Branduil]

The only team that had a longer drought than the Giants did was the Cubs who recently...

...nevermind.

LOL.

There are 8 teams which have never won a World Series currently in the league.
