When the Major League Baseball playoffs started, many Royals fans proclaimed their support for the Milwaukee Brewers because of the ex-Royal factor.
Former Royals center fielder Lorenzo Cain signed with the Brewers as a free agent last winter and the Royals traded third baseman Mike Moustakas to Milwaukee in the summer. They were stars of the Royals’ 2015 World Series championship team, so it’s no surprise that Kansas Citians would want the duo to succeed.
Count Royals general manager Dayton Moore among those who want good things for his former players.
“I think when they all started the playoffs, we sent them a text and just wished them well and told them we were proud of them,” Moore said Thursday at his end-of-the-season news conference at Kauffman Stadium.
