Royals Sweep
Despite my unabashed fandom for the Kansas City Royals, I’m not necessarily even hoping for this. I mean, if this series could be the best of 27, I’d be okay with that. This Fall Classic is truly classic. Two great teams, loads of fantastic pitchers and hitters that could scare any of them. But, here’s the thing. You can’t lose in a 14-inning, clear the bullpens thriller, then lose again – making it two losses against your best two hurlers – and then feel good about getting back into the Series. The Mets just took a major blow to the gut, and I’m not sure they can bounce back, even in New York. Let’s put it this way, if the Royals win Game 3 tonight, bring in the Fat Lady for Game 4.
