JUPITER, Fla. -- They're close friends who live halfway across the country from each other, and they share the bond of both having fathers connected to Major League Baseball.
Meet the double-play combination for the Royals Scout Team 18U squad competing at the Perfect Game World Wood Bat Association World Championship this week at the Roger Dean Chevrolet Stadium complex. At shortstop is Robert Moore, a 16-year-old from Leawood, Kan., and over at second is Christian Cairo, 17, from Clearwater, Fla.
Although they see each other infrequently, they have a brotherhood through baseball.
