The noise echoed across an empty building. Above the third-base dugout, a collection of three dozen or so Royals fans had taken up residence here at Tropicana Field on late Tuesday night. The place was deserted. The only sounds that suggested a major-league baseball game was still taking place were the thunderous crack of the bat and the scattered cheers that followed.
“Let’s go Royals?”
Yes, here in Florida.
In the top of the 12th inning, Royals third baseman Mike Moustakas saw a 1-2 fastball from Rays reliever Diego Moreno and drove the pitch 404 feet into the vacant seats in right.
