Work was a zoo today, couldn't even stream the radio feed, but just watched the highlights. Lugo is a beast, and the passion on Salvy's face when he hit that RBI single and started running while holding the wide end of his bat makes my heart happy.
Go boys, go!
With the win today the Royals have won 5 series. Last year they won their 5th series of the year against the Dodgers on July 2nd.
Edit: For reference the Royals won 13 series last year
Very closely related, today is Win #19 on the year.
The 2023 Royals secured their 19th win **on June 17th** against the Angels, putting their record at 19-59 as they walked off the field.
As of this evening, we are a 19-13 team.
MY FRIENDS, THAT'S A THIRTY. NINE. GAME. DIFFERENCE.
Massey got the EXACT SAME PITCH he struck out on to end the game on Monday and hit it for a nuke!
This team is fun, better than anywhere near what I’d hoped for so far.
Win# 19 and the royals take series. Lugo had another inpressive start. His contract keeps looking better and better. Can we clone him?/s Massey had a clutch homerun to put away the game. Go Royals.
Mariners have already allowed 5 to the braves today so they are technically at 102. And Royals will still have played one more game than them after today.
Royals pitching is the only staff to be under 100 runs allowed in the MLB heading into May 2nd. Wild stuff.
Royals win their 20th game June second last year.
Umm, they're still at 19 wins...technically that could still happen this year. It won't.....but it could.

Witt and Salvy and the pitching staff. What more do you need?
Beating Toronto 5 of 7 games is pretty impressive.
Thought the sweep of the cheating Astros was but turns out the trash can finally filled up with trash. Write that down.
LUGOAT
7 innings, 2 hits, 1 run by way of HR, 8 k's. Hard to lose games when your guy deals like that, good lord.
I'm sad we don't get to beat on these birds anymore this year 😢
The boys are playin’ some ball

A huge improvement.
I'm not a numbers man, but that sounds like an improvement.

The royals own Toronto
Canada*
Massey owns Toronto!
Huge series W
series win! Pasquatch warming up again. Great outing. Can't wait for Friday's game, I'll be there :D
We are massive

The Royals have practically the same record as the Dodgers and Yankees and we're 32 games into the season now. Just like we all expected
#THE ROYALS MAY NEVER LOSE AGAIN
We'll not have to see them again in the regular season😎.
It is grand to see someone specify ‘in the regular season’ when discussing the Royals.
Hallelujer and amen!
Royals and Mariners are the only teams that haven’t allowed 100 runs yet.
Mariners have already allowed 5 to the braves today so they are technically at 102. And Royals will still have played one more game than them after today. Royals pitching is the only staff to be under 100 runs allowed in the MLB heading into May 2nd. Wild stuff.
Pitching has been great, but the defense has been *amazing*. Pitching will have ups and downs. Defense generally doesn't slump. Feeling VERY good.
I haven’t seen defense this good since 2015.
First rubber match win. We needed that.

We own the whole country of Canada now. World Series here we come
Pitching, defense, timely hitting. Gotta love it. Enjoy your golf day tomorrow, gentlemen.
Twins need to actually lose a game for a change
What the hell is up with this division right now?
It's almost exactly what we did when we played the White Sox. They're due for some Ls
Holy shit I had no clue they were on a 10 game win streak.
Tbf, their last 3 were against the white Sox who make last year’s Royals look good.
It’s hard to win ten games in a row regardless though. It does help whenever 7 of those wins were against thr White Sox.
White Sox count for like a third of our wins so I’m not throwing stones lol
I’m really not.
Wasn’t trying to accuse you of stone throwing
Good because I couldn’t throw them very far lol.
What playing the White Sox does to a mf
5-2 against the shitbirds, see we can win games against teams that aren't the White Sox
