The 104-loss season of hope

The Royals dropped their 104th game of the year on Sunday, which I’m sure you can tell is a lot of losses. Baseball has been played for well over a century, with a few thousand team seasons having been played, and just 62 teams in the history of baseball have lost more games than the 2018 Royals.

And yet, have you ever seen a fanbase more positive following 104 losses? Typically fans want to get a losing season behind them as quickly as possible. But this year, Royals fans seem to want more.

It is easy to see why.
