***Official Michael Wacha against Tarik Skubal 4/20/25 GameDay thread***
 

Tall order today. The Royals draw the second best starting pitcher in MLB after Paul Skenes. We counter with Michael Wacha. 2 to 1 on the Boys is our offered wager.

Pasquantino is the only lefty in the Royals lineup. The batting order for the Boys is as follows:

India
Witt Jr the Second
Salvadore
Mark Canha
Garcia
Renfroe
Pasquantino
Ferm-dog
Drew Waters

Tall order today indeed. One year ago to the day, Jesus rose from the grave. Tall orders have been known to come through on this day.

last year was fun!

I recall Yuliel Gurriel being on the team last year. It wasn't that fun.

I tried filing a missing persons report on Joey Wiemer but the cops said I need to wait an additional 48 hours. Further updates in future threads.

Good luck Royals! You're going to need it, I'm afraid. Just get this road trip done, the schedule gets much better and we will be home for a bit.

We need another bark at the park to snap ourselves out of the dog days of sum....oh wait it's still April.

I gotta give Bobby Witt Junior a lot of credit. He could have easily asked himself out of the lineup. Wacha would be pissed but he has enough credibility that he could have ducked this one. But he didn't. He's out there doing his best. What a legend.

Scoreless through one. Sexy Rexy is on his A game, talking about first overall picks eating a bite of humble pie. I think he was a first overall pick himself.

No he wasn't.

That's a great AB by Vinnie. Skubal was getting strikes at shin level and Vinnie hung in there for the RBI.

He was a high first rounder I know that much.

Glad we are resurrecting our offense today!!!

Rex Hudler once had a 3 game playing streak LOL

Happy Easter to you too, sir. Did you find any eggs today?

2-0 Royals and Wacha is dealing out there.

Another day, another terrible ump. It's time for automated strike zones.

There goes "Pop-up" Renfroe.

Pasquatch sucks

If Vinny can’t hit this year, there is absolutely zero chance.

Hud said he was due for a home run!

Lol this team blows

A lot of empty seats in the big green chairs behind home plate.

OP should be strapped to a rocket and fired into the Sun.

Old ass salvy is tough to watch

What the hell's wrong ump, that was only 6 inches off the plate, clearly a strike?

Just play the ****ing game

Welp. That’s probably ballgame

Game over, this team blows.

Canha can! 3-3

Canha has been a solid pickup.

Extra innings coming up.

I’m sad watching Salvy. He no look too good at anything now. Can we get his ‘ol buddy LoCain to make the “call”. No one with the Royals will do it.

That's a win.

It’s about ****ing time

A win is a win. Good for them

Relieved to stop the streak. Now come back to KC and win a couple of home series.

This

Yes and yes

Winner winner pizza dinner

Not a better time to have the Rockies coming to town

Please, don't **** this up.

Man, did we need that.

We’ve lost our last game of the year already. Going to win out.

What's this?

A win? PBJ

We are now 2-8 in the last 10 games!

Look out MLB! ( once these guys learn to hit ) :hmmm:

He needs to get it going

At least they were careful not to go over their 4 run max. 😂

Im just glad Melendez is gone. I was tired of seeing him do NOTHING... except do the Salvy splash when other players had a good game.
