From their inception in 1969 through 2020, the KC Royals have either been parked in the American League West or Central. There have been battles with the Oakland A’s, Chicago White Sox, California Angels, Minnesota Twins, and Cleveland Indians. Yet none of these have topped the ire of a Kansas City fan like when they see the Yankees on the schedule.
Of course, New York is not a tough team to dislike. Many teams take pleasure in beating the players in pinstripe jerseys. Not only have the Yankees captured 27 world titles, but they and their fans are not shy about letting you know this.
