For most things, you can get your news and analysis in a lot of different places. There’s NPR, CNN, the New York Times, the Kansas City Star, and a slew of other traditional media. YouTube, Twitter, and podcasts are increasingly valuable in the media landscape. And nowadays, you aren’t simply limited to specific types of media, but voices within said media. If you’re a Kansas City Royals fan, you can read The Athletic, follow Jeffrey Flanagan on Twitter, peruse Fangraphs, or read the latest Royals Review blog.
If you want to consume a live Royals game, though, your options disappear like a Zack Greinke curveball under the bat of an unprepared batter.
