A welcome back moment for Tatis?

This might be the most bonkers game of the entire year. Back and forth, extra innings, benches cleared in the 10th, the Dodgers blowing it open in the 12th after a Tatis error... now the Padres have run out of pitchers, their 2B is pitching and one of their starting pitchers is playing LF, and actually caught a fly ball for an out on a David Price sac fly.

It's a great day for baseball.. Let's play two!

Just looked at the schedule for today, and Ervin Santana is starting the second game?!! (According to yahoo)

We traded for a pitcher?
[Reply]

The Royals announced today that they have acquired right-handed pitcher Eduardo Herrera from the Arizona Diamondbacks for outfielder Nick Heath, who was designated for assignment on Wednesday.

Herrera, 21, was signed by Arizona as an international free agent in 2016, and played as a catcher and infielder in the Dominican Summer League from 2017-18. He converted to a right-handed pitcher in 2019 and struck out 38 batters in 23.2 innings (14.5 K/9) across 22 relief appearances between the Arizona League and Class-A Hillsboro.

After AB’s double went over Gurriel, Ryan and Rex said he was playing him like a “punch + Judy” hitter. :-)

Ryan and Rex lurk on ChiefsPlanet apparently.

When Rex tells Ryan to “die in an AIDS fire”, we’ll know for sure.

He also had to explain what that meant too.

We here on the Royals thread have an understanding of this game that local yokels could only dream of having.

If we are ever rumored to be in on a guy who was released, Ryan may just blurt out the old “Have we signed this piece of shit yet?”

Yeah it’ll be entertaining the next time they sign off and Rex says:

“That’s all from Kansas City...eat fuckpie queers!”

What a shit inning....

Whit doesn't score from 2nd on a single...
Salvy K's with Whit at 3rd with 0 outs...
Alberto flies out to shallow RF and Whit stays at 3rd...
Dozier swings at the first pitch with bases loaded and 2 out...

Royals score 0
