Felipe Lopez drove in the first run for the Royals in the third with an RBI single, and Nick Johnson tied it in the sixth with a solo home run. The game ended up going to extras tied 2-2. David DeJesus broke the tie in the eleventh with a sacrifice fly to center that brought in a run. Joakim Soria came on in the bottom of the inning and closed out the game and the series.

October 14, 2013

KANSAS CITY -- The Royals were unable to win either of the first two games in Kansas City and now move on to Oakland, risking losing the series before they can even make it back to Kansas City.

Billy Butler tied it in the fifth with a solo home run, and the Royals took a good three-run lead in the sixth on an RBI double by Mark Teahen and a two-run homer by Nick Johnson.

Pat Burrell provided the winning run in the eighth with a solo homer.

ALCS - Kansas City Royals (0-2) @ Oakland Athletics (2-0): Game 3
October 16, 2013

OAKLAND -- The Oakland Athletics are now one win away from moving on to the 2013 World Series. Game three was scoreless until the fifth inning when the A's scored five runs off Royals starter Kyle Davies. Jeff Fiorentino hit an RBI single, Vladimir Guerrero riped a two-run double, and Pat Burrell launched a two-run homer. It seemed all hope was lost for the Royals, until they scored five of their own in the seventh. Alex Gordon knocked in the first run with an RBI double. Luke Umbria followed with an RBI single. Later, Felipe Lopez ripped an RBI triple, Mark Teahen made it a one-run game with an RBI single, and Nick Johnson tied it with an RBI double. Unfortunately, it wasn't long before the A's scored again, as Brendan Harris knocked in the go-ahead run in the eighth with a double. Rich Harden came on in the ninth and closed out game three.

ALCS - Kansas City Royals (0-3) @ Oakland Athletics (3-0): Game 4
October 17, 2013

OAKLAND -- The Royals managed to avoid the sweep and won game five of the ALCS in Oakland. Mark Teahen hit into a groundout that scored a run in the first, but Pat Burrell, who has been hot, tied it in the second with a solo home run. The rest of the game was mainly all Royals. Chris Conti jacked a solo shot in the third, Alex Gordon ripped an RBI double in the fourth, Nick Johnson smashed a solo homer in the sixth, David DeJesus hit a solo shot in the seventh, and Nick Johnson hit a second solo blast in the eighth to account for six Royals runs in this game. Ricky Dinas went back out in the ninth to complete the game. He got two quick outs, but then Vladimir Guerrero reached when he hit a hard liner at third in which Alex Gordon dropped as an error. On the very next pitch, Pat Burrell launched a two-run shot to left. Dinas was still able to finish the game and get the win.

Yeah, it'd be pretty pathetic if you got swept after a season like this.

Now this post is pointless. Thanks Chicubs. :razz:

OAKLAND -- The Royals have managed to win two in a row in Oakland and now send this series back to Kansas City. The Royals jumped out early with three runs in the fifth. Felipe Lopez ripped an RBI double and Nick Johnson jacked a two-run homer. Vladimir Guerrero provided the first A's run in the fourth with a solo homer, and Mark Ellis made it a one-run game in the fifth with an RBI single, but the Royals would take total control after that. Alex Gordon got an RBI double in the seventh, and Nick Johnson made the final blow with a bases-loaded bases-clearing double to left. Of course, Pat Burrell couldn't go quietly in this game, hitting a solo homer in the eighth, but the Royals dominated this one to win.

ALCS - Oakland Athletics (3-2) @ Kansas City Royals (2-3): Game 6
October 20, 2013

KANSAS CITY -- The Royals have come back from being down three games to none to force a game seven in this league championship series! They powered their way to win tonight behind another dominant pitching performance by Gil Meche and tons of runs. Their first of three really big innings was the first in which David DeJesus lead-off with a solo homer, and after Felipe Lopez got on base, Mark Teahen jacked a two-run shot. Khalil Greene made it a four-run lead in the fourth with a solo shot to left. Then the Royals had a four-run fifth in which Mark Teahen ripped a two-run triple, Nick Johnson hit an RBI double, and Billy Butler smacked an RBI single. Just when you thought the Royals couldn't possibly score more, they come up with a six-run seventh. Mark Teahen jacked a three-run homer, Billy Butler hit an RBI double, and Alex Gordon crushed a two-run shot to complete the Royals' fourteen run game. Gil Meche was sure thankful for all the support even though he only needed one of the fourteen runs to win, pitching a complete game shutout; his second of this postseason.

Just so you all know, I haven't changed the difficulty since the start of the postseason. Before starting the playoffs, I lowered CPU batting from lock-on 2 to normal, but I haven't changed anything since. :lol:

ALCS - Oakland Athletics (3-3) @ Kansas City Royals (3-3): Game 7
October 21, 2013

KANSAS CITY -- THE KANSAS CITY ROYALS HAVE COME ALL THE WAY BACK FROM A 3-0 DEFICIT TO WIN THE AMERICAN LEAGUE PENNANT! The Royals are moving on to the World Series in a game with an epic finish! The game started out scoreless until the fourth when Sherrod gave the A's the lead with an RBI single. Billy Butler tied it in the fifth with a solo shot to center, but Pat Burrell gave the A's the lead again late in the eighth with his own solo shot. The game went to the ninth with the Royals down by one and it didn't look good for them. David DeJesus grounded out to start the inning, two outs to go for the A's. Then Felipe Lopez lined a single into center and the Royals had something going. All of a sudden, Mark Teahen got a hold of a high fastball, and hit it high and deep to center towards the jumbo screen. The ball barely made it over the wall for a come-from-behind walk-off two-run homer to end the game 3-2 and send the Royals on to the World Series!
