Kansas City Royals fans everywhere held their breath when budding superstar, Adalberto Mondesi dove for a foul ball in mid-July and dislocated his shoulder in the process. The 24-year old shortstop was one of the most highly regarded prospects coming up through the team’s minor league system and made his debut in Game 3 of the 2015 World Series.
He made his long-awaited return to the lineup on Sunday and it was a night and day difference of how he changes this lineup. While the Royals haven’t had the season they had hoped for, Mondesi has been a player fans have a tremendous of excitement for going forward.
