The Kansas City Royals Are In The Playoffs For The First Time Since 1985
The Kansas City Royals are going to the playoffs! We'll ignore for now that they've only earned a spot in the Wild Card play-in and that the Tigers lead the division by a game. Either way, the Royals will be playing more than 162 games for the first time since Ronald Reagan was president....

Mike Moustakas Catches Woman's Face Instead Of Foul Ball
One of the best things about baseball is that fans sit precisely zero feet away from the field.

Royals Win On Wild Sprint-Off
Jarrod Dyson is fond of the maxim, "that's what speed do," which is an easy thing to say when you're as fast as Jarrod Dyson. But last night's thrilling come-from-behind win, in which two pinch-runners had their ways with the basepaths? That's what speed do....

NFL Officials Could Not Be More Ready For The Preseason To End
