GDT : Cards vs. Royals (6/5) ~ Game 1 ~ 12:45pm CDT

Noot with a Nado to 3B

Thought your guy M. Winn had one

[craviduce]

Chip with his best HR call yet....325ft fly out..... "Hit too high".

[Eyelids64]

A pop up, a drive and a whiff.

[Futuregm2]

Put 2 LH’s of the first 3 in the lineup vs a pitcher that has held LHB’s to 1 for 19 so far in his career.

Donovan a career .673 OPS vs LHP continues to hit 3rd even against LHPing. His .689 OPS vs LHP this year is the best of his career and it still isn’t any good.

Ouch, every contact was hard. Not a good start for MM.

he's due for one of his stinkers and his stuff looks weak.

Anybody smell a sweep

Miles is just throwing meatballs

No, I think Libby bounces back. But I don’t have a good feeling about this game.

Hoping he holds up well enough for someone to take him off our hands at the trade deadline.

He's thrived this season w/a lot of batted ball luck, you're right he's due to have it catch up to him and even out.

TRADE-ASAP-If he'll waive the NTC!

[Futuregm2]

Better inning for Miles. Let’s get the lead

I believe the Royals swept a DH last year at Busch.

[craviduce]

If Sikes can "smell rain" (post from yesterday), then I smell a comeback...or the Chili Cheese burrito I had last night.


Either way, lets get some runs!!

if one wasn't watchimg, just listening, Chip sure made it sound like it was gone

[ramfandan]

Cmon Chip ! Geez ! He keeps calling those deep flyouts to the track like they are going into the 5th row of the bleachers.
Caray : Swing ! and a drive in the air deep to left ! Lars back ... TO THE WALL ! (LF catches the ball .. Chip adds .. He's got just enough room

NO Chip ! it was NOT 'to the wall' It was about 3 steps shy of the wall , in fact.

Then Chip adds 'it had the right sound but it was hit too high '

Then Brad chimes in with ' Don't know about you Chip , off the bat I didn't think this had a chance to stay in the ballpark . '
Brad covers for his buddy's obvious bad call.

Seems like Chip does this about every week and half or so . Or is it more than that ? Sure is annoying !

[MIDMOBIRDTWO]

I hate listening to Brad. He gets old Chip to yammering and he forgets he is announcing baseball. He starts to think he is performing standup at some random comedy club. It ain't funny!
