Kansas City Royals The Kansas City Royals are a Major League Baseball team based in Kansas City, Missouri. The Royals are a member of the Central Division of Major League Baseball's American League. From 1973 to the present, the Royals have played in Kauffman Stadium. The "Royals" name originates from the American Royal Livestock Show, held in Kansas City since 1899. Entering Major League Baseball as an expansion franchise in 1969, the club was founded by Ewing Kauffman, a Kansas City businessman. The franchise was established following the actions of Stuart Symington, then-United States Senator from Missouri, who demanded a new franchise for the city after the Athletic Kansas City's first major league team moved to Oakland, California.

ROYALS 7, YANKEES 4; Rodriguez and Yanks Find It's Not Their Day Had the umpire Chad Fairchild called Mark Teixeira safe at first base with two outs in the bottom of the ninth inning at Yankee Stadium on Saturday afternoon, it would have set up an exciting finish. That would have brought Alex Rodriguez to the plate with the bases loaded and his team trailing by three runs and Rodriguez needing but one home run to reach the 600 mark in his career.

EXTRA BASES; Some Players Are Not All-Stars, but They Are All-Important John Sterling, the longtime radio voice of the Yankees, often observes in his broadcasts that you cannot predict baseball. And he is right, of course. If we could, why would we watch? But everybody tries to predict what will happen, or at least has expectations to match against the reality of the games. This is true for fans, writers and, especially, general managers, who construct their teams based on how they expect each player to perform.
