One of the most fun things about covering the Royals this year has been discussing the milestones they’re hitting as compared to when they hit them last year. Here’s my favorite so far.
With last night’s victory, on May 3, the Royals achieved their third winning streak of at least three straight games. They first achieved that feat last year on...September 22 in game 153.
For those of you playing at home, yes, they only had three such winning streaks all season. They were all in the second half, and though all went for more than three games they were far too little, too late.
