KANSAS CITY, Mo. – No sane Mets fan is in a panic after one loss to the defending World Series champion Royals, a 4-3 contest Sunday night that ended with the tying run at third base and all of Kansas City pondering a burnt end.
It would be an insult to your baseball intelligence to even point out that it is a long, long season and that somehow in the past, teams have recovered from losing the first of 162.
