Game 49 - 5/29/2006

Royals 6, A's 4

While the organization waits for word on their fate, the Royals have actually played a little better over the last few games. Newly acquired pitcher Seth Etherton pitched well in his first start as a Royal, though he did labor throwing 100 pitches in five innings. Etherton gave up just 2 runs (1 earned), and the bullpen held on for the win.

The offense put up a well-rounded attack with Emil Brown leading the charge. Brown had three hits and an RBI and five different Royals had RBI's. Shane Costa had 2 doubles and Matt Stairs and Doug Mientkiewicz also had doubles.

Meanwhile, rumors are still floating that Braves Assistant GM Dayton Moore is considering accepting the GM job in Kansas City. Many believe it is nearly a done deal. Royals fans, and Allard Baird, continue to wait...

The Bell Curve
Actual Record 12-37
Expected Record 14-35
Runs Scored 192
Runs Allowed 317
Projected Record 40-122
Pythagorean Record 44-118
Pythagorean Winning% 0.268

Let's go get 'em
