Royals Super Bowl!
Ok, probably not but I have to say everything going forward is gravy to me.
Did I think the Royals would be 10 games over .500 right now? Heck no. Good for them!

Maybe man gravy. In your face. If they don’t make the playoffs. Catastrophic fail given circumstances.

Huge one today, in that a win today means you've got a VERY good opportunity to clinch with Singer on the mound Friday (which means you can set yourself up for whatever order of Lugo/Ragans/Wacha you want, in the Wild Card round).

Yeah, fish, assuming the best getting that rotation set up is huge

Pinch hitter Frazier comes through.

Detroit down 3-2 bottom 8 in Detroit. Fingers crossed things stay as they are so far today.

Salvy pads the lead.

Jinx!

Yeah, I was worried about that. I am cursed. At least the Royals handled their business.

Detroit pulls through.
3 games at Atlanta who are fighting for their playoff lives as well.

As a hurricane bears down on the area.

Right.
Can the Royals even fly out of Washington to make it there on time safely?

The games should probably be relocated to KC just in case.

Meanwhile, Detroit gets three games at home against the worst team in MLB, the White Sox.

Royals were 12-1 vs Sox this year. Without them, team is .500

Don't get swept at home by Detroit last week and it's not an issue.

Team doing things the way they should today. Bunting, swinging at hitable pitches.

KC definitely didn't do themselves any favors since Vinnie P. went out. Heard he was back taking BP again so hopefully they can stay alive long enough to get him back.

Royals just need to win 1 of 3.
In fact, perhaps like two teams in a World Cup final game who both just need to tie to advance, both teams could work together on this.
If the Royals simply win tonight, they pitch the worst of their rotation games 2 and 3 and maybe even sit their stars...so then Atlanta can take the other 2 and have Sale against the Mets.
