Royals win powerful ALCS opener
Well, that went exactly according to script. Both No. 1 starters were gone by the sixth. The Royals hit home runs. The Orioles stole bases. Fourteen runs, 26 hits. Buck Showalter's bullpen matchups didn't work in the end, while Ned Yost used Kelvin Herrera and Wade Davis for two innings apiece. The Royals win the ALCS opener 8-6 in 10 innings, and it was a heck of an adventure. The Orioles even got the winning run to plate in the bottom of the 10th. Whew.

My daughter was born in 1985, the last time the Royals made the post season. Now they're (so far) undefeated in the 2014 playoffs. And looking very dangerous.
I am loving this!
