Thirty years. It had been thirty years since the Kansas City Royals had last won a division title. Yes, the Royals had been to the World Series, but they still had not won their division since the days of George Brett, Frank White and Bret Saberhagen. Four teams, all of which had made the postseason before the Royals made their return last year, did not exist. In fact, the American League Central did not exist when last the Royals were kings of their division. But tonight, that changed, as the Royals defeated the Seattle Mariners 10-4.
