The Yanks turn to their ace Michael Pineda to put an end to this three-game losing streak tonight in Kansas City. The Royals are playing well. They scrubs no more.

Chase Headley 3B

Didi Gregorius SS

Never mind the bbq:

From lohud:
"Joe Girardi told reporters in Kansas City today that Chase Whitley has a tear in his elbow ligament and surgery is a possibility. "

Getting Capuano back just in time. Seems like these days you need 10 MLB capable starters because half of them are going to go down.

1) Feel bad for Chase. That sucks.

Hey, fuck Chris Young, ok? I know he's had a great start this year but fuck him. Time to mash.

3 Alex Belth   ~  May 15, 2015 7:13 pm

Way to go Brett. That was a triple all the way. Now, bring him home.

[1] sigh

5 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:16 pm

Alex is starting to concern me.

6 Alex Belth   ~  May 15, 2015 7:18 pm

Throws 2 strikes--taken by Alex--next 3 are horseshit trying to get him to chase. He doesn't. Then throws a high curve, it would have been called a strike, and it fools him enough to have his timing off. Pop up to shallow center, Gardner holds.

7 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:18 pm

Lame.

8 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 7:18 pm

I hate wasted triples.

9 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:20 pm

I tragically missed Pineda's performance Sunday.

I'd like him to repeat it tonight for my benefit.

10 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:24 pm

SHit.

11 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 7:24 pm

Crap.

12 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:25 pm

I can't believe how that carried. I thought that was an out off the bat.

13 MSM35   ~  May 15, 2015 7:38 pm

Get one in KC and get out of town.

14 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:41 pm

Agggh, for fuck's sake!

15 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 7:41 pm

Sigh, Drew.

16 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:44 pm

They're getting some healthy swings against Pineda.

17 Alex Belth   ~  May 15, 2015 7:48 pm

Guess he put good wood on that.

18 Alex Belth   ~  May 15, 2015 7:49 pm

Fucking Didi…c'mon dude, cut down on that swing, Money.

19 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 7:53 pm

Thank me!

20 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 7:54 pm

Wow, 177 out of 198 is an 89% success rate.

21 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 7:54 pm

What the FUCK with all these popups?

22 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:00 pm

Cycle watch for Moose 2.0

23 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:01 pm

Le sigh.

24 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 8:07 pm

Off the end of the bat and it still traveled a long way.

25 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 8:09 pm

Oh right.

I guess we'll take that.

26 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:09 pm

Even Alex can score on that.

27 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:14 pm

I guess we're reduced to accepting that.

28 MSM35   ~  May 15, 2015 8:14 pm

Was anyone surprised that they only got one run? Sigh!

29 coleman42   ~  May 15, 2015 8:23 pm

Mike not getting ball DOWN like he did last outing. Balls in middle of plate get hit...

30 coleman42   ~  May 15, 2015 8:26 pm

Get DOWN tonight!

31 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:26 pm

Phew

32 MSM35   ~  May 15, 2015 8:28 pm

Can't expect a top performance after 111 pitches last Sunday. You pay the price on the back end.

33 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:33 pm

[32] Cone once said you've got 10 games with your stuff, ten when you've got to fight through it and ten where you've got nothing. This is a battle game.

34 rbj   ~  May 15, 2015 8:34 pm

High strike there blue

35 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  May 15, 2015 9:05 pm

I do not like the KC Royals.

BB King: look up a clip of him playing a show at Sing Sing prison some time in 70s, crazy good.

36 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:15 pm

Sigh.

37 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:15 pm

Way to hang in there, Mike. Way to battle.

38 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:18 pm

OH, JESUS CHRIST!

Did you fucking see that shit?

39 Mr OK Jazz Tokyo   ~  May 15, 2015 9:19 pm

Why did all the projection systems forecast under .500 for the Royals? Seem like a great team...

40 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:19 pm

That's what Little Leaguers do.

41 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:29 pm

The wheels sure came off this motherfucker in a hurry, huh?

42 weeping for brunnhilde   ~  May 15, 2015 9:31 pm

This inning is reminding me of California wiping the floor with us in 2002. One line drive after another after another.
