The Royals beat the Indians 3-1 in this mundane June game. I just like some of the names; Ken Harvey, the big singles hitting 1B/DH for KC; was it Aaron Guiel, a forgettable outfielder?; Shane Spencer batting cleanup for the Tribe; and Kansas City's starting pitcher, the one-time big prospect (compared to Tom Glavine, of course) Chris George.
This seems like a lot longer than seven years ago, to be honest. Maybe that can be chalked up as a positive of rooting for a bad baseball teams--they make the summer seem longer, they don't jog the memory as quickly as the good ones years later. They make time seem just a little slower, just a little more forgiving. Alright, maybe I'm taking it too far; after all, this was the last year the Royals finished with a winning record.
