I live in the KC Metro on the Kansas side of the state line.
This year was particularly sweet. Not only did the Royals bring home the championship, but my childhood team (the Cubs...I grew up in Western Illinois) made the playoffs as well.
I fell asleep and missed the last inning. Saw the final out on tv this morning, how does a batter watch that strike 3 go by? He looked like he didnt want the bat in his hands and was hoping the ump would settle it for him.
