    8 runs? whatttt

    Looks like the next two games of this series they will be shut out, right?

    Big props to Jenmar Gomez for throwing at a KC hitter after being warned if he did so he’d be ejected.  Choo got beaned again tonight (Saturday) which led to the benches clearing.  Hannahan also got tossed after going postal.
