KANSAS CITY - The mayor of Kansas City has issued a mouth-watering challenge to Toronto counterpart John Tory ahead of tonight's opening game of the American League Championship Series between the Royals and the Blue Jays.
Sly James said he will wager a selection of ribs and barbecue sauce from three Kansas City restaurants on the outcome of the series and is now waiting for Tory to offer something in return.
"I'm looking forward to hearing from you, mayor, we want to hear what you guys are going to put up. Make it something good, brother."
James also boldly predicted a Kansas City victory in the best-of-7 series and that he wouldn't lose the bet.
