Game 87 - 7/9/2006

Blue Jays 11, Royals 3

Jimmy Gobble just didn't have it. He walked the first batter of the game, and it was downhill from there. It didn't matter though. Gobble could have put up a Clemens-esque performance, and it probably wouldn't have made a difference.

Roy Halladay was that good. Halladay has his way with Royals hitters from the start. I only remember seeing one or two balls that made it out of the infield.

The Royals head into the All Star Break on an up note, playing much better baseball over the last six weeks or so. While it would have been nice to get a win in the last game before the break, the Royals still have to feel good about their recent performance.

This continued improvement should result in the Royals Breaking 100, if they can keep it up for the second half of the season.

The Bell Curve
Actual Record 31-56
Expected Record 32-55
Runs Scored 396
Runs Allowed 528
Projected Record 58-104
