Kansas City Royals, holy shit. First team in major league history to have an 8-0 start in the post-season. That's two straight sweeps of playoff series'.
How about those Royals? The Kansas City Royals are American League Champions for the first time since 1985? The Royals beatt the Baltimore Orioles 2-1 to complete a four-game sweep? The Royals become the first team in major league history to open a post-season with eight straight wins.
I'm really not much of a baseball fan but I can see this is a huge deal and give credit where credit is due.
Being the first team in major league history to do ANYTHING these days is huge I would think.
