Just noticed that Francisley Bueno makes another ex-Brave farmhand with KC. Could be old news though.

Might have to give Selig some props. The Wild Card game in 3 seasons has been wildly successful for smaller market teams

Pittsburgh's atmosphere last year was off the charts and this year in KC has been just as solid.

There was a Roman Colon sighting in the dugout also.

Francouer must be sad.

Isn't Bruce Chen a Royal as well?

Saw LA is gonna use Kershaw/Greinke 4 of 5 if it goes 5 games.

Ol Ned screwed up.

Oof. Bad decision by Yost and it backfires big time

Way to go Brandon Moss who is from Loganville, Georgia!

That is also where I live.

Yea, I agree that you have to go with big game Shields rather than the kid there. I know Moss had hit one off him already and also a line out. But you have to go with the playoff proven vet rather than the kid there with control issues, though he has a big fastball of course.

I wonder if that move may cost Yost his job. It's not as if he has an impressive managerial career.

Fredi says: "I make such moves all the time. Shoot, I even refused to use the best closer in the game over Carpenter in a playoff do or die situation and I didn't lose my job."

I wonder where Fredi and Yost learned to manage in the playoffs.

Ned Yost is trending on Twitter and it's purty ugly

This game further proves how stupid the one-game playoff is.

So, Beane and Melvin are smart again, and Dayton and Yost are dumb, amirite?

I suppose those that have questioned Beane and Melvin while praising Dayton and Yost will have to answer that one. I have liked Beane and Melvin for years now personally.

 

[Heyward]

Well this game just got real interesting.

 

[Braves1976]

Royals won't go down without a fight, what a battle.

Luke Gregerson picked a bad time to not have it.
