Box Score Bytes - Game 84

1) No sweep for you...Royals bust out the big bats.  Rox now 0-16 when allowing 16 runs.  Rox have allowed 17 runs five times and have won one of those!

2) Not a good day for Mr Hammel.  Mr Consistent Inconsistent.  What I mean by that is you are going to get about 10 wins a year from him but you'll also get about 8 - 10 losses too and when he loses it can be ugly.

3) Rox had a chance to get back into it in the 5th but then Belisle decided to have a meltdown and gave up 6 runs after the Rox scored 5...

4) Rox finish the interleague schedule with a 8-7 record.

5)  Cross our collective fingers and hope CarGo is OK!

Box Score Bytes - Game 83

1) Fill in pitcher extraordinaire, Greg Reynolds, is now 3-0 for the season.

2) Rox score early and often which is always a good thing!  Of course it wouldn't be worth it if the Rox didn't let Royals get back into it...

3) Ellis' hot start continues with 3 doubles!

4) Helton got his 920th extra base hit tying him for 55th all time

Box Score Bytes - Game 82

1) And so here comes July. Three months in the book and Rox find themselves 40-41. If only we could erase May

2) After a couple of close losses to the White Sox I am sure Rox enjoyed teeing off on the Royals tonight.

3) New look at second base with the arrival of Mark Ellis. Triple short of the cycle.

4)Nicasio goes 8 strong with a game score of 78 marking the fourth highest total this year.
