[JWC]

Braves won against the Cubs. Took 10 innings and was a very good game to watch.

[Sir Henry]

M's begin a seven game seven day road trip today. Then they come home and play three more.

[JWC]

Braves game was over early last night. Yeah, the Braves lost. They are 12 games back of the division leaders on May 3rd. Geez!

[Sir Henry]

M's won the first road game. Hope they can keep up the pace.

2nd game with the Nationals just ended.

Royals started their bottom of the ninth down 6-4.
Tense...tense...tense.
Nationals pitcher was doing a pretty good job.
But the Royals ramped their batting up.
After a very good inning and several solid hits, KC brought 3 men home, and won the game 7-6!

Last game of the series is tomorrow. Royals & Nationals tied at 1 each.

I expected a lot more of the Royals this year. And I wasn't expecting how well the M's are doing this year.

[Deadwood Dutch]

The Yankees are losing, the Phillies are winning. That's been the story on my teams lately.

[PT7]

You're not alone, Sir Henry.
I bet a huge number of those 30k-33k fans, who attend each home game, think/feel the same way!
Good that your M's are moving along this year.

I guess we can always commiserate about the Cubbies, in general, and especially on their WS record!
'Tis the nature of sports to have those ups and downs.

M's win again to take the lead in the AL West.

[JWC]

Braves beat the Mets in a very well pitched game. Picked up a full game on the division leaders. Now we are only 11 games back. Get away game today around 1:00pm. Go Braves.

[Sir Henry]

I've always liked the Braves chant.

[PT7]

Royals chant of "Let's Go, Royals" is a howling roar by the stadium crowds, win or lose.
Lots of noise last year during the WS Championship series. Almost could hear it at our place!

[Sir Henry]

M's have an early game today. They are currently down a run in the fourth.

[PT7]

Top of 7th inning between Royals and Nationals this afternoon.

Natls - 13, Royals - 2
The basic stats of "hits" and "errors" is pretty dark for the Royals, too

But the sun continues to shine in KCMO!

~~~~~~~

Game just ended (it's 4:10PM now).
Ouch x's 11 --- Royals lost 13-2.

Sun is still beautiful in the light blue sky, even though Royals lost the series 2-1.
Next games are the 3-day weekend series at the Indians' home park.
See you then.

[Sir Henry]

M's won today which meant a three game sweep of the A's.

[JWC]

Braves had an afternoon "get away game". I believe they must have left before the game started! Mets hammered the Braves yesterday. At least we will not lose a game today......travel day to Arizona. lol

[Sir Henry]

M's start a four game series this evening against the last place Houston.

[Sir Henry]

M's beat the Astros by scoring three runs in the top of the 9th to break a tied ball game. They are now six games above 500.

[Coach]

Giants are getting pummeld by the Rockies.

17-7 in the 5th.....going to bed.
