00:00There's the Cleveland Guardians coming up big over the Kansas City Royals, 7-1, Tanabibi
00:11fans 6-0 over Kansas City, and Donnie, the slump continues for the Royals, and this is
00:17not the time of year to be going through a 1-7 on the bounce they've managed to lose.
00:22Yeah, this is crazy.
00:23Like, usually in gambling, right, Dubsie, 7 is usually a great number, 7-7-7 hits your
00:27jackpot, 7 on the opening roll gets you paid in craps here, but 7 for the Guardians means
00:32that's a loss for the Kansas City Royals, and that means, Dubsie, 7 losses in a row.
00:37This is a team that we take a look at for the Kansas City Royals and say to ourselves,
00:40they are a playoff-made team.
00:42They've earned the right, entering in September, to sort of coast to the finish line.
00:45What I mean by coast would be is, let's just play 500 baseball, nobody's probably going
00:49to be able to catch us, but now you see them with 7 straight losses, and every loss that
00:53piles up, you start to get that little bit of that energy, vibe, taken away from that
00:58locker room, and the struggles come out to sea.
01:00Yesterday, handicap in this game, I thought Singer was the better pitcher on the mound,
01:03but he wasn't bad by any stretch here, Dubs.
01:05Five and two-thirds innings pitch, five hits, two earned runs.
01:08That's a quality start that keeps your team in the ballgame, but he was one up by Bybee.
01:12Six innings pitched, only one earned run yesterday, and the bullpen fell out for the Kansas City
01:17Royals.
01:18So many times we saw this year that bullpen hanging on, starting pitching whatever, but
01:22that lineup, one through nine for the Royals, has always come to play.
01:26Bobby Wood Jr., once again, two hits in three at-bats, 340 average, but not a lot of help
01:31behind him, or quite frankly, in front of him here last night.
01:34Tough loss for the Royals, and as I said, every loss that piles up now, that pressure
01:39begins to build and build, because they still have a lead in the wild card.
01:42If the season ended today, Dubsy, they would be in, but boy, if you keep on losing and
01:46maybe extend this to 10 games here, that panic is really going to settle in.
01:50I thought they'd win yesterday, and they got hammered.
