The last Kansas City Royals game happened on Sunday. They lost. Their next game will be Friday, against the Minnesota Twins. They will probably lose.
It is in these terribly awful seasons that our love of baseball and the Royals is tested, and it is during the All-Star break that it is truly, truly tested. Because if we’re fans of the Royals, we should be impatient for baseball to start again, dang it.
But when baseball starts again, Kansas City will continue its march towards its worst season in its 50-year history. And who wants to watch that?
