We will win every game
Tucker Bradley coming in clutch!
Still on track to be undefeated!
Oh, it was a Bradleydong to walk it off, not a Duffydong. Nevertheless, nice way to win a Spring Training opener!
I k keep its spring training but HELL YEAH!! God I missed baseball!!!
We may never lose again
Betting my life savings on 162-0 right now
Tucker Bradley the GOAT
Based on today’s performance we are World Series bound. Expect 4 no hitters this year too.
Vinnie is gonna mash so many baseballs this year.
Vinnie look like a steal for a 11 round draft pick
Sure good to hear Royals baseball while I work. Enjoyed it today and looking forward to tomorrow.
Calling it now, we make the post-season. (Ok, so not really, but looking forward to seeing the kids play.)
I… I’m excited. Dang it.
The Pasquatch about to make his mark on the league this year. dude is gonna be so fun to watch
I don’t normally wear hats. But today I put on my royals hat. I didn’t realize it was game day, but it worked out
Nice team, Texas. Unfortunately you don’t have Vinnie Pasquantino on it, so it sucks.
See you in the World Series
Dayton Moore is wrecking their team already.
