BOSTON -- If the operators working the manual scoreboard on the Green Monster during Wednesday afternoon's game had left up Tuesday night's numbers, they could have saved themselves a lot of time. The only difference in Wednesday's game was a new source of illumination, as the glaring sun replaced the stadium lights.
Coming up on the short end of a game dominated by pitching for thefalseDavid2006-07-21T10:49:00-07:002006-07-21T17:49:44Z2006-07-21T17:49:44Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13572389.post-115350418484666647Royals acquire Keppinger from Mets07/19/2006
The Kansas City Royals and New York Mets completed a deal that sent Jeff Keppinger to Kansas City and Ruben Gotay to New York in a swap of Minor League second basemen.
With much speculation circling around possible trades involving Reggie Sanders, Tony Graffanino and Mark Redman by the July 31 non-waiver trading deadline, Kansas City took part in a Minor League deal Wednesday.

KANSAS CITY -- It wouldn't be fair to expect Runelvys Hernandez, who will be recalled from Triple-A Omaha to start Friday against the Angels, to completely fill the shoes of the pitcher he's replacing in the rotation. Still, the Royals will take what they can get.
"We need a pitcher and he's the guy," manager Buddy Bell said.
Hernandez's promotion comes after right-hander Scott Elarton,falseDavid2006-07-21T10:45:00-07:002006-07-21T17:48:48Z2006-07-21T17:48:48Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13572389.post-115350412852567724Royals pull away from Angels late07/21/2006
KANSAS CITY -- Joey Gathright's speed might be as good as advertised, but it could do nothing to accelerate the lumbering pace of Thursday night's game between the Royals and Angels.
Batting in the bottom of the sixth with the game already approaching the 2 1/2-hour mark, the Royals' center fielder at least added some spice.
In the process, he helped produce what proved to be thefalseDavid2006-03-02T07:20:00-08:002006-03-02T15:21:24Z2006-03-02T15:21:24Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13572389.post-114131288408439844Matthews draws closer to Hall call02/21/2006
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- Denny Matthews is in the Royals Hall of Fame but he'll have to wait for Cooperstown.
Matthews missed out on the Hall when former Houston Astros announcer Gene Elston was selected for the broadcasters' wing of the National Baseball Hall of Fame on Tuesday.
Matthews, who has called Royals games since the franchise began play in 1969, was among 10 finalists for thefalseDavid2006-03-02T07:20:00-08:002006-03-02T15:20:39Z2006-03-02T15:20:39Ztag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13572389.post-114131283901756752Bernero competing for spot in bullpen02/21/2006
SURPRISE, Ariz. -- What team did Adam Bernero help get to the World Series?
The Yankees perhaps? No, we're talking college ball here. Hmm, Texas or Cal State Fullerton?
Nope and nope. It was little Culver-Stockton from Canton, Mo., in the NAIA World Series. His coach recruited a bunch of California kids, including Bernero, and unleashed them.

SURPRISE, Ariz. -- The squeeze for seats on the Royals bench will be tight this spring.
Manager Buddy Bell said he plans to go with 12 pitchers, leaving just four spots for reserves.
Matt Stairs is a lock because he'll be a frequently used designated hitter, first baseman and outfielder. One spot will be filled by a catcher, Paul Bako.
An infielder will be needed and Esteban German isfalse
