NY Times:Loyal To The Royals
Long read but a good one
Here's a small sample The Royals’ first playoff appearance ended in heartbreak in 1976 when Chris Chambliss homered off Mark Littell to clinch the American League pennant in the Bronx. Dayton Moore, a 9-year-old from Wichita, Kan., wept. Sorry for the repost just saw that it was in the Royals thread,mod please delete. |

I remember this as a young kid.
It's funny to watch fans storm the field like that. I don't think that happens anymore? It's much more controlled nowadays.

Ha I totally forgot our pitchers had to bat that whole damn series. With the best DH in the game. Ridiculous.
Also to this day when a batter just misses a home run foul I think of Daryl Motley in this game. Come, straighten it out, Motley did it in game 7. |

Great read.
Can't say that I've ever experienced the joyous part of being a Royals fan in my life, but I'm ready. OUR TIME. And all that good stuff. |
