Kansas City Dares to Hope
The Kansas City Royals are headed for the big time for the first time in a generation. This scrappy American League team hasn’t seen a pennant or the playoffs since 1985. But, after a spectacular 2-1 win against the Orioles, the Royals are due to face off against the mighty Giants. Back in Kansas City, fans hardly dare to believe that, after decades of pain, their boys in blue are betting favorites for the World Series, which gets under way on Tuesday.
