Love Granderson, though. He had a nice game tonight. Him + Kevin Long =

[a-friend]

Mets had hitting from everyone, (before the extra innings too) not just Murphy and Grandy, which is all I thought they needed to win this Series.

Mets had 11 hits and has the Superior Pitching. KC just wins.

I can't see this series ending any other way than with KC hoisting the trophy.

[EddieDoyers]

Rusty Kuntz sounds like a nickname for a washed up pronstar

 

[jewbacca2]

@McCulloughStar: Lorenzo Cain told Rusty Kuntz he will never bunt again. There were expletives involved.

Wahhhhhhhhhhhh.

It's baseball, shut up.

 

[macbk]

Went to sleep once the game finished.

Classic

 

[macbk]

@JeffPassan: Edinson Volquez sent some teammates a text message after the game thanking them for winning it. He left after learning about the passing of his father.

@goldbergkc: Yost says he talked to Chris Young about starting in case Volquez found out about his father before the game

@goldbergkc: Ned Yost says Edinson Volquez's family asked that Eddie pitch and not be told about his father passing until after he left the game

|I

Okay, at least there is clarification - if Volquez's family asked that he not be told until after the game, than fine.

He pitched a solid game regardless of the unfortunate news.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Rusty Kuntz made losing a little easier

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Man how great are these ******* Royals ?

Mets do their job tonight though

 

[mrdozo]

all that other stuff happened so long ago though 

Yep, game was still tied when The Captain Lite made an error to put the leadoff man on base.

He has a disability he gets a pass.

No. If youre disabled, you sit your &^$ on the bench. This is the world series, not a charity game.

 

[denksss]

I hope the mets switch up DH tonight

 

[jewbacca2]

I hope the mets switch up DH tonight

Just let the pitchers hit

Better than Kelly Johnson.

 

[kingfoamnyc]

Uribe is on the roster he needs to DH

 

[thatboydrew]

who was that dude in the marlins jersey behind home plate?! I see him at ALOT of games and looks like he put some voodoo magic on the mets pitching!!

 

[All_$tar1997]

 

[therealrell]

No. If youre disabled, you sit your &^$ on the bench. This is the world series, not a charity game.

And blaming the loss on Wright is stupid. The Mets had plenty of opportunities to win this game with RISP and didn't capitalize. Familia blowing the save. You can go on and on. The game should have never gone to the 14th inning. This loss is on the entire team. They gave this game away.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

he's the best 3b they have that's why he plays. stop *****ing about Wright had a damn 1 run lead against the bottom of the order in the 9th with 1 out. gotta close the game not ***** about a guy making an error in the 14th inning.

salvy apparently has pine tar behind one of his shin guards
