It is worth noting that the final out at second likely isn’t a play this team makes a month ago. That’s a level of focus on details they just didn’t have.

Anyway, #HeyHeyHeyHey! We tried to blow it again, but Lukes wouldn't let us! Nine wins in a row! #Royals
Lukes knew he was out immediately. That is a horrific error. #Royals
The Blue Jays just love ending games with an out at second! #Royals
God damn, Tyler! When he is good, he is very good! #Royals
I didn't see live where that got Clement, but his reaction told me all I needed to know... #Royals
I was kind of thinking less shitty strikes, but I suppose that's on me for not being specific. #Royals
This is also where I really wish we had cashed in some more of those scoring chances. #Royals
Connor does not have any command. Get someone up for the fourth hitter. #Royals
I am pleased we are winning 4-1, but I feel like we could be winning about 8-1. #Royals
Loftin was just like 'Why risk a play at the plate when I can just score on the throw?' #Royals
Hopefully this is just a week or so on the concussion IL to make sure he's okay. #Royals
Oh dear. You know Michael wanted to make up for that throwing error, and he did make a fantastic play, but it is not worth a bad injury. #Royals
I have no idea how Salvy didn't crush that 2-1 pitch. #Royals
The five Simpson's lines I've uttered most off the top of my head: 1. It's what smart managers do to win ballgames 2. Bacon up that sausage, boy 3. So what you're saying is, I'm indestructible 4. She's hidden diamonds everywhere, even on the soles of her shoes 5. Well, I'll be quirky...
The 5 Simpsons lines I’ve uttered most off the top of my head: 1. And that little boy, who nobody liked, grew up to be... 2. Ah Lisa, that's just a load of rich creamery butter 3. Oh, I'm not a doctor 4. I needed those. I really did 5. He wore sneakers! For... sneaking!
Schreiber was awarded the win. I think that's fair enough. There wasn't necessarily a good answer. #Royals
#HeyHeyHeyHey! Eight wins in a row, a perfect homestand, and an improbable season series win against Detroit! #Royals
Vinnie! We don't need the RBI if you make that play! #Royals
Half of what I wanted, but I will take the two insurance runs as better than nothing. #Royals
The rule about the lights is so stupid. I get the intent, but just put it in the umpire's hands so that the actual amount of light is the same for both teams. We don't refuse to put the drying compound down in the bottom of the inning. #Royals
I, personally, think Vinnie should hit one into Rivals here. #Royals
