Red face Week 18 - August 13th: Embarrassing Loss for KC in Game Two Against Twins

This might be one of the most embarrassing losses we’ve had this year. I don’t even know what to think. After the first inning, we basically forgot we were in a game and lost all focus on baseball. It was truly one of the most embarrassing displays I’ve seen this year.

Zac Eflin was terrible in his start, and we never recovered from it. This game just shows how certain decisions made throughout the year can be brutal. I probably made one flawed decision too many to blame anyone other than myself for this end-of-season disaster starting to form.

You start scoring runs and winning, everyone's going to get excited," said Kepler.
