But apparently Mike Sweeney doesn't pray enough. Contreras was on his way to a 20+K performance when his hamstring was obliterated by a bolt of lightning. This let the Royals face: Cliff Politte, Neal Cotts, and Luis Viscaino.. against whom they did nothing. Matt Diaz was probably safe in the 9th which would have won the game.. But who cares. Burgos, Greinke, and Sisco looked great. Diaz probably doesn't belong in the OF.. I'm sorry to say. The Royals had an error.. 2 misplayed DPs, and a balk. Yeah. They also gave up a run on a stray throw in by Diaz where he missed..well everyone.
I figured the Royals had to win this one.. Just to shake things up. Pena bunted Sweeney in the 2nd inning after Dejesus hit a HR and Gotay walked on 5 pitches. He also sent Stairs once.. shock he got caught. Fire Pena..
Sigh.. Macdougal doesn't trust his fastball, though he has mastered his slider. If he can throw the heat for strikes he'll be as unstoppable as the two guys that pitch lower leverage situations ahead of him.. oh wait.
Greinke got a zillion groundballs today. He's not going to give up 1.5+ HR/9 this year so you can pencil that ERA around 3.50.
Eli Marrero is a chump.
