The Royals make it hard for you to get outs and record outs more efficiently than any other team.
This is their beauty. This is how they have reached two straight World Series. This is what the Mets are facing when the 111th World Series begins Tuesday.
In basketball, they would be the team that gets a shot off every possession and limits yours. In football, they would be the master of the consistent drive on offense combined with a shutdown defense. In baseball, they put it in play and force you to produce outs with your glove while being better than any other team in the sport with their gloves.
