The All-Star Game is next week. In recent years the Royals have repeatedly sent multiple players to the event. As recently as 2017 they actually sent seven players. As a fan who started watching in 1998, that was something I would never have believed if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. I still remember the year 2000 when the Royals actually sent two players to the All-Star Game. That was probably the absolute most excited I had ever been for the team. They had to be good, didn’t they? They managed more than the bare minimum guaranteed to them by the rules!
