ALDS Game 5: Astros vs. Royals, Wednesday 10/14

It came to mind on Monday, though, as the Royals singled their way out of ruin, scoring five station-to-station runs in the eighth inning to stave off elimination and even their ALDS matchup against the Houston Astros.

“Obviously this is the deciding game, you either win and stay or you go home”, Cueto told the Kansas City media at the team’s Tuesday workout.

“We have just as good a chance to win Game 5 as the Royals”, he said. The only real problem he found in Game 1 against Kendrys Morales, who hit a pair of solo home runs from 19 game victor Houston. In his start earlier in the series, McHugh pitched six solid innings, giving up two runs. However, they battled right back and won the series after winning Game 6. similar result will be this year to punch their ticket to ALCS.

The Astros have Collin McHugh (1-0, 3.00 ERA) on the mound to face Johnny Cueto (0-0, 6.00 ERA) of the Royals.

Later that half-inning benches cleared on two different occasions, as Dyson seemed equal parts confused and angry about what had taken place as the Rangers went from leading 3-2 on a controversial play to trailing 6-3 on a bunch of misplays and a Bautista bomb.

In fact, the comeback was the second time the Royals has rebounded late in the game from a four-run deficit in the postseason, doing the same thing in the 2014 American League Wild Card Game against the Oakland A’s.

Cueto acknowledged that his looming free agency has been on his mind, but he also said there are no excuses if he fails to live up to expectations tonight.

Before the chaos unraveled on Monday afternoon, I got a message from a fellow KC native during the break before the eighth inning began.

The young, nearly naive bunch of guys in the Kansas City clubhouse kept riding that momentum all the way to Game 7 of the World Series, where they finally lost to San Francisco.

This outing will be a referendum on the Johnny Cueto trade for the Kansas City Royals. “We have to focus on the next game”. “I’ll have everyone available in Game 5 that you would expect”. Get to know Ashley McHugh a little bit better here.
