    Gomez kept his composure very well. Most hitters would have been extremely upset about that.

    Some crazy ****ers keep their composure at the weirdest times. It's like Rasheed Wallace going into the stands as a peacemaker during the malice at the palace.

    Game's been on for ~40 minutes and there's 1 out in the top 2nd.

    Huh, pretty sure the Royals guys just said Springer is the first leadoff hitter to hit a 1st inning grand slam in 30 years.
