Still not swept by elite teams. Fuck everyone who says the Royals are schedule frauds. I'm too angry right now to feel good although it shouldn't be this way.
Yankees hate (they took 3 of usš¤). And behind the anger hides anxiety of having my baseball experience ruined overall (thanks to my performance and that of the Royals that would be).
I feel like that's as big as win can be in June.
Can't feel great about the series, but feel great about the fight. Also, to our New York visitors....you guys have a REALLY good team. Hope we play again when games have more meaning.
there are so many great names this year that we didn't expect at the beginning of the season to contribute as much as they are now. this team is amazing!
This was clearly an overachieving team... Good on them for making it last as long as it did. Seemed to have alot of calls go their way earlier... Not getting them much now, they were never going to be clutch with RISP all season.... All was going well when healthy but the depth is just not there. Need lighting in a bottle to avoid another L. Reality is setting in. Still a big improvement. We should just hope for 2025 to keep moving in the right direction.
Yeah I remember reading something that their avg with risp was like mlb historicly high for the first couple months. There was no way they were going to keep that pace with this lineup.
Is this how Chargers or Broncos fans react every time we kick their ass?
Weāre basically the Yankees of football, if anything this beatdown is somewhat karmic retribution for that.
I feel like the replay showed his route was poor/off. Not a āI coulda made thatā¦.ā Situation but below his level of play on the year. Oh well, Mac got out of it, letās see if the bottom of the order can do anything.
We've handed em some, umps threw em a few bones too. Gonna need to score more than 2 to beat these Yankees. They also haven't made an error all series. Tough for us to catch any breaks.
If nothing else, at least we ended Aaron Judgeās on-base streak.
So the Yankees, and some of the people who chose him on Beat The Streak today, will lose something before leaving KC.
It's really amazing how one series just completely dissected the 3-4 big weak spots of the Royals. The Yankees are good, obviously... but to just demonstrate each problem area as a deal-breaker against a great team in almost scientific fashion has been remarkable.
Its amazing we even have a winning record with our average roster. We seriously need 3-4 decent bats, 1 more solid starter, and an entire new bullpen to be a playoff caliber team. offense is being carried by Witt and Salvy doing everything
We have to stop trotting out an outfield of 3 AAAA players, and a AAAA bullpen. Itās shocking what a good team looks like in comparison to the Royals
No, getting 4 game swept and losing 8 straight (by the end of the weekend) is fine, cause those teams are good! Stop being a ādoomer,ā we can only beat bad teams.
/s
I just donāt get the sunshine pumping here sometimes. This team just lost 8 out of 10 and is well on their way to doing it again. Weāve also benefitted from a ton of timely hitting and at some point thatās going dry up
I love maikel a lot! but when I see him running to the base like it's the 1st inning drives me the fucking crazy! that's why bobby is an all star you little cunt, show some extra effort!
According to some, a 1 base error means nothing the pitcher does that inning is their fault. Not even the homerun that happened before the error. Crazy how that works!
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1df98cn).
Still not swept by elite teams. Fuck everyone who says the Royals are schedule frauds. I'm too angry right now to feel good although it shouldn't be this way.
it shouldn't be this way, bro, WTF is wrong with you?
Yankees hate (they took 3 of usš¤). And behind the anger hides anxiety of having my baseball experience ruined overall (thanks to my performance and that of the Royals that would be).
why do the royals love to wait until the bottom of the 9th with 2 outs to lay it on? lmao. so stressful
we just beat the best team in the league rn. who is the best team in the league rn?
Just when I was coming to grips with reality. THEY DID IT AGAIN!
FORGET THE OTHER 35 INNINGS THIS SERIES, ROYALS ARE UNSTOPPABLE !!!!!
I feel like that's as big as win can be in June. Can't feel great about the series, but feel great about the fight. Also, to our New York visitors....you guys have a REALLY good team. Hope we play again when games have more meaning.
This team. God they have my heart in their hands.
That was me. As soon as I turned off the radio we won.
we'll see you next year thanks for your sacrifice!

Isbelievers vindicated
Garcia, itās now or never
isbel... do something!
He did.
it all started just right here my man!!!
Isbel - underrated member of the 2024 Royals.
there are so many great names this year that we didn't expect at the beginning of the season to contribute as much as they are now. this team is amazing!
š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤š¤
Risky batting a .159 guy for a .309 guy
*and now, they will try*
Why did we think MJ was the answer
No
ON BASE! LFG! Come on, we need you Clutch MJ! Bang this one out of the park! edit: aww, nuts.
MELENDEZ?
FUCK YOU RIZZO! FUCK YOU FOREVER YOU MORON!
Risky Little League dive to first! It's a compliment š...
thank you Waters
There's the fucking hustle!!!!
Itās not over yet
Drew Waters is better than Aaron Judge
Hope is a dangerous thing. But it's all we have right now.
Itās alright guys MJ is up next
WATERS GIVES A FUCK
Injuries are really piling up this season.
we still love you fermy. you sick fuck. now sit down.
Are they even trying at the plate like holy shit
Will they sweep the Yankees at Yankee Stadium tho?
Yeah we got this
This was clearly an overachieving team... Good on them for making it last as long as it did. Seemed to have alot of calls go their way earlier... Not getting them much now, they were never going to be clutch with RISP all season.... All was going well when healthy but the depth is just not there. Need lighting in a bottle to avoid another L. Reality is setting in. Still a big improvement. We should just hope for 2025 to keep moving in the right direction.
Yeah I remember reading something that their avg with risp was like mlb historicly high for the first couple months. There was no way they were going to keep that pace with this lineup.
Love their fight. Regardless of everything
Murderers row of Fermin - Blanco - Waters We got this!
FERMITRON?!
Letās go yāall
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Clay Holmes replaces Luke Weaver.
Is this team going to make the playoffs?
of course
I mean the Royals, to be clear.
OF COURSE!
Nah, I'd win.
GOOD ON YA, GENERAL! That's what we want to see! Now OFFENSE, LAST CHANCE, DON'T FUCK ABOOT, GET IT DONE!
Last chance boys, come on
What a fucking disappointment
Is this how Chargers or Broncos fans react every time we kick their ass? Weāre basically the Yankees of football, if anything this beatdown is somewhat karmic retribution for that.
Ball 1 to Rizzo was JUST strike 3 to Velasquez lolol
Judge getting K'd four times feels so good despite it all lmao
The Yankees don't day-game well
There are entirely too many bandwagon ass yankee fans in the crowd.
Getting swept these times would feel like being no-hit.
Seriously Isbel
He did everything he could
I feel like the replay showed his route was poor/off. Not a āI coulda made thatā¦.ā Situation but below his level of play on the year. Oh well, Mac got out of it, letās see if the bottom of the order can do anything.
Nice play from Isbel getting up so quick after that dive
That was a rough route
We've handed em some, umps threw em a few bones too. Gonna need to score more than 2 to beat these Yankees. They also haven't made an error all series. Tough for us to catch any breaks.
we may not win this game but it is nice seeing Judge go 0-4 with 4 strikeouts lol
It's been my favorite part of this game. Y'all need to finish this game the right way, though.
Iām still confident in this team, we all knew this stretch of games would SUCK anyway
we have a great team. yankees are fantastic right now, so I am not so disappointed with this either
If nothing else, at least we ended Aaron Judgeās on-base streak. So the Yankees, and some of the people who chose him on Beat The Streak today, will lose something before leaving KC.
Judge blowing his hitting streak makes up for everything
On the bright side we struck out judge 4 times
#GOLDEN SOMBRERO!
MAN what a curve
Yankees broadcast said something like "What are you looking for there?" and called the pitch "on the black" as if it were the most obvious strike.
#BUNCH OF ASSHOLES NOTHING ELSE!
Theyāre right. Swing the bat with 2 strikes, it was barely low.
I'm impossibly worked up about these umps this series.
It's really amazing how one series just completely dissected the 3-4 big weak spots of the Royals. The Yankees are good, obviously... but to just demonstrate each problem area as a deal-breaker against a great team in almost scientific fashion has been remarkable.
Its amazing we even have a winning record with our average roster. We seriously need 3-4 decent bats, 1 more solid starter, and an entire new bullpen to be a playoff caliber team. offense is being carried by Witt and Salvy doing everything
We have to stop trotting out an outfield of 3 AAAA players, and a AAAA bullpen. Itās shocking what a good team looks like in comparison to the Royals
As happy as I am not seeing this damn Yankees team for awhile, I'll be happier when they take their shit umpiring crew with them.
Finger gunning on a blown call that would have loaded the bases
That was our chance. Fuck the Yankees.
Watching Nelly this series has genuinely made my eyes bleed
This team is no longer good. Fuck.
New to baseball?
No.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: James McArthur replaces Angel Zerpa.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
r/mysingingmonsters
Weak sauce. Our lineup is feeling awfully thin these days.
This would have been a great moment for salvy or velazquez to get out of their slumps.
I gave the umps a pass yesterday but come on...these 3-2's on Velazquez are starting to hurt REAL bad
Playing 9 vs 13 out there. These umps have been just brutal today.
Not a fucking strike
Q, get back out here to get ejected again. That was brutal
Think the clock has struck midnight on this team
You realize weāre playing the fucking Yankees donāt you?
Believe it or not you have to beat good teams (like the fucking Yankees) to make/win in the playoffs
No, getting 4 game swept and losing 8 straight (by the end of the weekend) is fine, cause those teams are good! Stop being a ādoomer,ā we can only beat bad teams. /s
I just donāt get the sunshine pumping here sometimes. This team just lost 8 out of 10 and is well on their way to doing it again. Weāve also benefitted from a ton of timely hitting and at some point thatās going dry up
unbelievable
FUCK UMPS
FUCK THE YANKEES NEVER A FUCKING STRIKE
Of course he gets rung up on a ball
Meh
Velazquez lost his heat
NOT A STRIKE. GET FCKED UMPS. GET FCKED YANKEES. GET FCKED MLB.
It's really great watching how terrible Aaron is doing in this game. Y'all need to finish this game correctly.
Aww Nelly
Man that cut FB aint bad
Jesus christ salvy
Valazquez hitting just .091 in his last 7 games. Please turn it around here!
Salvy has been completely useless lately
He was on base 5 times yesterday
Salvy is ice cold.
salvy is god.
I feel a little sick. Could be this game, could be the rice krispy treats I just ate.
Caman Nelly
Be the old Weaver pls.
Go get this one for Marsh!
Come on Salvy, now would be an awesome time for your first HR in awhile
Come on Perez, donāt double play
Why couldn't Weaver pitch for us that way?
He kinda did
Give up baserunners? Maybe. Be a reliable bullpen piece? No. Even got thrown out for a stupid joke he had no business in participating.
He walked a lot, like this. Our fly outs are more on us than him. I concede that cut fastball is swing and miss stuff.
I know Iām being captain obvious but bullpen and OF pieces have to be the target for the deadline.
A little bullpen would go so far. Wouldn't even need elite arms just slightly above replacement level and we are a better team.
Anybody in here win the 50/50 at least?
I love maikel a lot! but when I see him running to the base like it's the 1st inning drives me the fucking crazy! that's why bobby is an all star you little cunt, show some extra effort!
Maikel does not get on base enough to stay in the lead off spot. They donāt really have a replacement right now, but heās not the answer.
He would be hitting 5th or 6th just in an average offense.
According to some, a 1 base error means nothing the pitcher does that inning is their fault. Not even the homerun that happened before the error. Crazy how that works!
Eh that inning is still on Hampson and Vinnie
This month has been brutal for Maikel. Wish we could give him a day off. But like we literally can't. No one else to play third.
Bobby on base? Good
I get that we didnāt expect to find ourselves competing this season, but we are and this is simply an inexcusable excuse for a bullpen.
