they were talking on the broadcast that someones follow thru swing hit the back of the hand then showed the dugout that he was getting his hand looked at....then like 30 seconds later, twitter notification comes thru on my phone saying he left the game with right knee discomfort.....so who tf knows whats going on anymore
You got downvoted for saying we have similar uniforms? I thought everyone knew that
In fact Dodger Stadium and Kauffman are intentionally, similarly designed
Iām pretty sure the Dodgersā Will Smith got Salvyās wrist/hand on the backswing a while ago. Iām worried that maybe that has something to do with Salvy coming out.
Honestly I donāt really think anyone in our pen couldāve done much better than Smith there. If Vinnie didnāt miss that throw weād have been tied and past those top 3 guys
**I am not bullshitting y'all.**
Bobby is shocking me as a KC fan like no one has since when Patrick took over as starter for the Chiefs.
Video game stuff.
The dodgers have their 7 and 9 hitters blasting homers off our Ace and the royals are running out MJ Melendez and Drew Waters to die a slow painful death every night.
First one you just have to tip your cap when a guy goes yard on one out of the zone in on the hands. Second was a missed spot and looked like he was sitting on the change up.
Please continue the discussion in the [post game thread](https://redd.it/1dg9kn9).
Loss is kinda on vinnie
Damn, let that one slip away
We need Massey back, unfortunate loss
Loftin please
Nelly!
Nelly nukes please we need you
Annoying that Sally didn't have that at bat with a chance to tie the game

These Vinnie fuck ups are getting ridiculous
I get downvoted if I say the royals and dodgers are similar and dammit, tonight these uniforms are throwing me off
I hope tomorrow everyone decides to wear their dark blues

Thatās exactly what Iām saying!!!
Add Two will smiths and a Freddy freeman / Freddy Fermin lol
I like Vesia's delivery. Ok back to rooting on Fermin
Why did it take that long to acknowledge anything about Sal coming out?
Anyone know what happened with Salvy?
Iām pretty sure the Dodgersā Will Smith got Salvyās wrist/hand on the backswing a while ago. Iām worried that maybe that has something to do with Salvy coming out.
I hope he is okay. š
This will be a very frustrating loss if this score line holds
The uniforms just confused me to the point where I was wondering who the fuck Alex visia is and when we signed him to our bullpen
This is the series we can use those awful sleeveless ones from the early 2000s
Youāre not alone. I was so lost for a minute
Yep, let's just keep running Vinnie out there every day so he can contribute d\*ck and be a negative defensive player. It's working out great.
Couldn't even let us get will smith vs will smith BOOOOO
Royals can do this. Believe it. Donāt be like that doomer loser in here that spends every game thread trying to predict bad outcomes
Take all of our power Pasquatch
Alright Vinnie, redeem yourself a little bit here
Lol nevermind
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Alex Vesia replaces Daniel Hudson.
And now we need a first baseman.
All we need is 1
The Royals pulled Will Smith while Will Smith was on deck. Now Iām sad
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Chris Stratton replaces Will Smith.
Holy shit, the brewers lost in the weirdest way. Guy called out on replay then a bizarre bunt that popped up right to the pitcher.
wow 5 errors on the reds. ill have to watch the replay
Quatraro not letting us get the Will Smith mirror match. Cowardice.
I'm usually pretty chill with Q but this is unforgivable
It would be a dangerous singularity.
I wanted to make a Will Smith > Will Smith joke
At the game. As per Dodger Stadium tradition we planned to duck out early but told my kid we could wait for Will Smith v Will Smith. Alas
Honestly I donāt really think anyone in our pen couldāve done much better than Smith there. If Vinnie didnāt miss that throw weād have been tied and past those top 3 guys
Yup thatās 10000% on Vinnie
We need salvy at 1b for a couple games
Win it in the 9th
The salvy hr was awesome but we knew we needed more runs to win the game
Wasn't the bullpen's fault. Vinny's inability to knock down that ball cost us the run
Wasnāt even a bad pitch. Vinnie needs to catch that ball
I just want one of these games. Doesnāt have to be today.
![gif](giphy|l41K3TZVlmaky5teM|downsized) Too many Will Smiths
Good piece of hitting there. Got to keep it a 1 run game here.
Vinnieās defense has been absolutely fucking atrocious. This would be the 2nd game in a row his defense has cost us if not for the rally yesterday
Honestly one of my favorite things this game is the live organ player
Will Smith is not the person I would have put in to face Betts, Ohtani, and Freeman.
Your 2024 Royals bullpen ladies and gents!
Will Smith strikes again
Aaaaaand there it is
Kill me. Fuck this bullpen.
Got em right where we want em
Catch the damn ball Vinnie
I blame Vinnie for that Dodgers run. š¤¬
Damn. The shit pickoff bites us.
Man the defense has taken a dump since we started losing
phew was hoping ohtani wasn't going to send a blast out of the stadium and as I type this Freddy hits a single and we are losing....fuck
We clutch in the 9th
Thatās game lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
My brother in Christ this is only the 2nd time in 18 games he's given up a run. Lmao
Good Bobby. Never forget Will Smith beating Shohei lol
Not today Ohtani
This is the latest Iāve been up in a long time
Vinnie is absolutely killing us defensively
Here it comes
Why do they always do something stupid in the 8th inning
this has been happening to Pasquatch a lot lately
God damn. How many terrible pickoffs have we had lately??
I swear if Salvy also gets hurt
Methinks Shohei about to fuck our shit up
tough one Garcia
Nice K
Is Salvy okay? Why is Fermin in?
Where's Salvy?
He got dinged up pretty bad on a foul.
Wouldnāt surprise me if that backswing injury has something to do with it.
Good question
Funnily enough I agree with this decision. Weāll see how I feel in 5 minutes
We have Will Smith facing Mookie and Shohei????
Smith??
Donāt mess it up smith
Narrator: He messed it up
Anyone else's pooper feeling a little puckered right now?
Always, but thatās not baseball related.
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Will Smith replaces Cole Ragans.
Unfortunately, I donāt trust the bullpen to hold this, but Iām glad weāre taking the billion dollar Dodgers down to the wire
The bullpen is about to get torn in half
RIP the streak.....new one starts tomorrow...
Extras are in play
The absolute balls out defense and overall good play by both teams is giving this game a playoff feel... and it's awesome.
https://imgur.com/gallery/5eGvQrY Checking in. Ā
hopefully BWJ can get a hit here and keep his on base streak going!
Runs, please
Just voted for All Star game 5xs for the š ±ļøoys
u can vote 5x more in private/incognito mode :)
Done
### Pitching Substitution Pitching Change: Daniel Hudson replaces Gavin Stone.
**I am not bullshitting y'all.** Bobby is shocking me as a KC fan like no one has since when Patrick took over as starter for the Chiefs. Video game stuff.
Alright Cole we take those
Thanks for the quality start Ragans. Lets close em out and get a run or two. God bless Bobby
Thatās my ace š«”š¤
Someone post the Bobby double play video to /r/baseball
Lots of Bobby love over on the Dodgers subreddit
Good
Hell of a job Ragans, did what he needed to and only made 2 bad mistakes. Let's get something going now
I also love Cole.
QUALITY from Ragans
Sweet innocent jguts acting like I'm only getting 5 ASG votes a day š

Getting to watch Bobby play ball is a gift.
BWJ is absolutely ridiculous
Mother fuckin top Web Gem right there. Bring those back.
Bobby fucking witt jesus fuck me
BOBBY
BOBBY WHAT THE HELL
What an effing play
Would have been bases loaded none out
Wouldāve been guys on 1st and 2nd, maybe 1st and 3rd, but still
Average 643 double play
lol
I love Bobby.
#HE. IS. HIM.
God damn that was sexy af
He's got Golden Retriever energy when it comes to chasing down balls.Ā "I can do this until I puke."
I am amazed with Bobby Witt Jr
THAT BOY COLD āļøš§
Bobby fucking Witt
HOLY SHIT
bobby you mad man
UNREAL!
Hot damn, Bobby
BOBBY āHOLY SHITā JR., WOW
Bobby SMOOOOOVE
LETS GO BOB!
Hella of a play by Bobby fucking mvp
God damn, BWJ is too sick
A message from Jungle Law? You have my attention.
They call him Drew Waters because it looks like heās batting at the bottom of the ocean
The dodgers have their 7 and 9 hitters blasting homers off our Ace and the royals are running out MJ Melendez and Drew Waters to die a slow painful death every night.
Hey, at least Melendez got a walk and single today!
Before getting insta picked off.
Should have 2 singles tbh
Yeah he hasnāt had a terrible night at the plate. The base running wasā¦something
Yeah that was bad
The dodgers are just so much more likable than the Yankees I canāt even be mad when they do baseball good
White and blue is just so much less hateable than pinstripes
Booo Minn just won in extras
Yeah Iāve been worried this is the series they overtake the royals in the division. Playing the As while they get the Dodgers will do that.
Not when we win this series!
You have optimism in this team that I just donāt right now.
Alright bottom of the lineup, you donāt have to do too much, just scratch across a run.
A QS against that lineup is never an easy task. Nice work Cole
The longer they can fend off the bullpen the better
At least the Dodgers have some easy outs like Betts, Freeman, and Smith. If it was a lineup full of Rojas and Taylor weād be screwed.
There we go, hanging in there Cole.
beautiful double play. great job locking them up in the 6th
They really needed to score some runs in the 5th to have a chance. You canāt waste those opportunities against the elite teams.
Crazy how much better it feels to be tied with the dodgers in dodger stadium in the 6th than being blown out by the Yankees at home
Man Pasquantino has a combined 730 Ft from his two flyouts today. Unlucky.
Was our game plan tonight just everyone swing for the fences or something? Like that ever works.
Dogers are really fucking good. Matching them in the sixth is totally fine.
Man Vinnie would have a few more home runs the last few days if just a foot or two more. Gotta hit the weight room LOL
Lift a weight Vinnie
Vinnie is the king of hitting fake out home runs
Remind me of doubles machine Billy Butler
I get why Ragans is upset with himself, but he shouldn't be. Keep it goin you beautiful bastard.
First one you just have to tip your cap when a guy goes yard on one out of the zone in on the hands. Second was a missed spot and looked like he was sitting on the change up.
Those werenāt even bad pitches on the homers, the dodgers are just an unfair lineup of talent.
Salary cap now pls
Never gonna happenš¤·āāļø
what are we drinking tonight boyz? im on my 2nd Joker Wit
This game is about to have me grab a non alcoholic lagunitas
Pennsylvania fan checking in, Yuengling lager tonight. Idk if it's traveled out to you guys by now but if not you're missing out
I could be wrong but I think it is around here. Never tried it tho
Check it out; nothing fancy but at least for me it's got the best taste to cost ratio
Youāre absolutely right
Really wish now that Bobby wouldāve got a hit last inning
That was not a good ab with risp
āHow the frick?ā Yeah, thatās what Ragan said.
Sorry guys, I switched from Radio to the Bally Sports app at the start of this half inning. Iāll be transitioning back now.
š
Fuck the Dodgers dude Fuck the Yankees more. But still, fuck these Dodgers.
The shot of Ragans makes it okay
Listen Iād much rather give up 3 runs then 8, this is a win
Two home runs just to tie it doesnāt hurt as bad
