It wasn't too long ago that I was watching a documentary online about Live Aid in 1985. There was a particular section of the documentary that showed footage of Princess Diana and the Prince sitting with Bob Geldof. They were watching Status Quo open the event. As I scrolled down to the...
Kansas City Royals manager Ned Yost continues to come through with great quotes that contrast sharply with the quality of baseball his team keeps playing.
After the Royals fell 4-1 to the St. Louis Cardinals on Tuesday night for their seventh straight loss and their 18th in 22 games, Yost was...
A fan dashed onto the field during Thursday night's Los Angeles Angels-Kansas City Royals game and made quite a scene before security caught up with him. He ran to the pitcher's mound, where he slid and grabbed the rosin bag, avoiding a would-be captor.
The slide-grab-and-turn was a lot like...
Sometimes, the Kansas City Royals actually spend money. They did so on Friday when they gave Alex Gordon a $37.5 million contract over the next four seasons. Gordan is one of the best players on the Royals and was one of the best hitters in the American League last season.
The contract calls...

OK, it was one thing for Fox broadcaster Tim McCarver, off the top of his head, to state during Game 1 of the World Series that S-T-R-I-K-E was a "five-letter word." Such a mistake easily can be filed under the "we all make them" heading, and McCarver has done worse. But this Colby Lewis...
Nine innings and nine items to get you going. Ladies and gentleman of the Stew, take a sip of morning Juice.
1. Still at 199: A 200th career victory has proven to be elusive for Tim Wakefield. But it looked like he'd finally get it Saturday night, as the Boston Red Sox gave him a 4-1 lead...
Have you ever wanted to pick the brain of an uber-talented artist, decorative painter, world traveler, instructor or author? Melanie Royals is all of these things and more! I had the opportunity to meet Melanie earlier this year at the Design Bloggers Conference in Los Angeles and was...
Baseball fans will do anything for a foul ball these days, even if it means sacrificing the well being of a loved one.
The only thing they won't do, apparently, is bring a glove to the park. Take this Kansas City Royals fan for example. He didn't bring a glove to Kaufman Stadium on Monday...
It's one thing to blow a save because of a few cheap hits, a defensive error or a bad umpiring call. But when you're handing away ballgames through a constant stream of gopher balls, you don't give your manager much choice.
The Joakim Soria batting-practice tour continued Monday afternoon, as...
Watch out baseball. The drawbridge to the Kansas City Royals fortress of minor league prospects has slowly started to lower to reveal the giant stockpile within.
First up across the midseason moat to the major leagues: First baseman Eric Hosmer, who was called up from Triple-A Omaha after...
I think he was frustrated here in KC and wouldn't have performed his best in the future anyway. I hope he goes and wins another Cy Young award. The first one got him a super model for a wife.
Anyway, its the same ole story in KC. We have to get rid of the one's that aren't happy here and try...
For Example: Aboard Nuestra Señora de la Concepción, Sir Francis Drake found 80 lb (36 kg) of gold, a golden crucifix, jewels, 13 chests full of royals of plate and 26 tons of silver.
I can't seem to find the answer anywhere..
Thanks! :)
...shutdown the legendary Yankees? Yanks are a $207 mill. payroll team and the Royals are a doormat since 1985. Yet today the Royals shut them down. Is this the true beauty of the game?
