Franchise Four brings Frank White back to Kauffman Stadium

About an hour before he was introduced with George Brett, Bret Saberhagan and the wife of the late Dan Quisenberry, Janie Quisenberry-Stone, Frank White stood in the hallway off the Royals dugout and greeted a half-dozen players and Royals officials.

“You’re the man,” White told Alcides Escobar.

“Congratulations, Frank,” Royals general manager Dayton Moore said during a handshake.

An old friend had returned to Kauffman Stadium on official business for the first time in four years. White was recognized as one of the Royals’ Franchise Four, a fan-voting honor conducted by Major League Baseball.

And White was honored.
