Ten years have already passed since the Royals won the 2014 American League pennant, their first playoff appearances in 29 seasons. Members of that team reunited in Kansas City earlier this summer, captured in a short film by the Royals and MoonBall Media, a production company headed by former Royals All-Star first baseman Eric Hosmer.
“You know, believe it or not we’re all still great friends,” said Hosmer. “We all see each other a great amount.”
The video, released this week by the Royals, revisits the 2014 season and how the team went from being a last place team early in the year, to making one of the most improbable runs in recent baseball history, culminating in a World Series visit.
