Surely one for the ages
Double Wahooooo!! Who would have thought a sweep of the Angels! The boys in blue are clicking on all cylinders right now. Hope they can keep it up in Baltimore!!
Still a ways to go... but at least they are still in the hunt.
Postseason Schedule | MLB.com
Yeah, this post season schedule is sooooo much different than it was when we were kids and they simply ended with the AL/NL best teams going into the WS - generally someone against the Yankees! Now we have not only division playoffs, but east & west to get there! As you say, one step closer, still in the hunt. Gotta say again I would never have predicted the sweep of the Angels after the season they had! Just goes to show it's just as much about the peak as the talent. The Royals seem to be peaking at just the right time, and maybe the Angels peaked to win their division and then lost some steam. Hoping that the Royals can keep it up for a few more weeks, and enjoy the ride!Quote:

An I 70 series would be nice :3dSMILE:
:LOL:Talk about Deja Vu All Over Again!! :LOL: First time in 29 years for the Royals to be in the playoffs, and 29 years ago it was the Cardinals & Royals in the World Series! Wouldn't that be cool to do again!Quote:

The Orioles ain't no joke either. If Royals can get by them which won't be easy. It should be interesting.
I live in Ocean City, Md. and should be an O's fan but am not. I have been a Padres,Chargers fan since I was a kid starting in 1979 and living out West. Good luck to all. Glad to see differeent teams in playoffs also.
Yeah M.T., back in '85 the rest of the country was kinda bored with two almost "local" teams playing, gotta admit. And slincoln 3, the Orioles sweeping Detroit in three says a lot about them, too. As you say, should be interesting to say the least. I'm really liking the way the Royals are playing their strengths and leveraging their speed to play good, old fashioned ball - advance the runner, base hit scores from second, and steal, steal, steal! Exciting as long as it works!!
Wow! Three straight over the Orioles! Need one more to be in the World Series, and the Orioles will have to win four straight to keep us out! Go Royals!!
Swept the Angels, now swept the Orioles!! What an amazing team of young guns!!
Royals to the World Series 2014!!
First time in 29 years!
UMMMmmmmm.....
AHHHhhhhhh...
Sigh... Roger?
What's a Royal?
A Royal is a team that sent the Angels and Orioles home packing!! They are a team of young, energetic, talented ball players!!Quote:

I was thinking maybe a Royal PITA.... Royal Blue... or Roy..Al... A google search leads me to believe it's a baseball team.
I thought your house watched football?!?!?!
And yes. I'm being silly AND obnoxious! Just because I can! roflmao!
Down to the very last pitch... What a great World Series this one was! It just sucks that someone had to loose... I was really impressed with that Royals team. Their something special and worth watching next year now that they have had a taste of what its like playing on the biggest stage. I think I really enjoyed the fact that I didn't have any skin in the game and could enjoy the playing on both sides. Congrats to both teams!
