At Royals FanFest in January, Royals left-hander Danny Duffy was asked about facing former teammate Lorenzo Cain, who had signed with the Milwaukee Brewers.
Duffy said, “As I know they will, the Kansas City fans will give him the ovation that he deserves. I hope that ovation lasts 20 minutes.”
We'll see about that length of that ovation as Cain and the Brewers are in Kansas City and will open a two-game series Tuesday night at Kauffman Stadium. But Cain told Tom Haudricourt of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel that he expects a warm welcome after he signed a five-year, $80 million contract with the Brewers.
