WOW
That is all I can say about what transpired last night in Game 1 of the 111th World Series between the New York Mets and the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium.
33 players, 32 pitchers, 13 full innings, and 5 hours and 9 minutes later, the Royals walked off the field with a much-needed win in Game 1 in front of a sold out crowd.
I didn’t know if anything could top last season’s back and forth seven game series between the Giants and Royals, but the first game of this series might have just topped it.
