“Royal” Magic

By Cheval John

The Royals are one game away from moving on to the American League Championship Series after pulling off another extra inning win against the Los Angeles Angels.

Coming into this series, the Royals were last in the AL in home runs.

However, it was the long ball that has led them to be 2-0 against the Angels.

The first game was tied at 2 in the 11th when Royals’ third baseman Mike Moustakas launched a go-ahead, game-winning home run to secure the win.

Then lightning struck twice early this morning.

In the top of the 11th inning with the game tied at 1 with a runner on, first baseman Eric Hosmer hit a two-run blast to right field that made it 3-1.

With the air lifted out of Anaheim Stadium, the Royals tacked on another run to make it 4-1.

The post-season has made heroes out of ordinary players.

Perhaps, this is a sign that the Royals are going to win it all this year.

If that happens, it will be 1985 all over again.

The Kansas City faithful, who traveled to Anaheim seems to agree.
