Toronto Blue Jays (April 14)

Today was another fantastic game. What made this game even better was that I was able to bring my dad and my wife was able to bring her mom. We gave them the whole experience: tailgating, getting their free Royals t-shirt, and getting their free small soda. Ervin Santana pitched again for the Royals and he pitched another amazing game by going 8 innings and only giving up 2 runs. The game was tied 2-2 in the 9th when the Royals won the game on an Alex Gordon base hit. So far it has been a great season for us watching games.

Toronto Blue Jays (April 12)

Tonight we saw the Royals play the Toronto Blue Jays. We were excited because the Royals just came off of a sweep of the Twins and were in first place. You can honestly sum this game up in one word: cold. It wasn't really bad when the sun was out, but once it went down people were throwing parkas and gloves on. The game got off to a rocky start with the Royals in a 2-0 hole by the time they got to bad and it didn't get any better for the rest of the game. It was their first home loss, but we're still not discouraged.

Opening Day (April 8)

Opening Day for the Royals was today and it was such a great time. We always get excited for this day because it is like a holiday for us. We got there early to tailgate and we had a nice lunch of apple maple brats, hamburgers, shrimp, and cupcakes for dessert. The game was fantastic with the game being 1-0 into the 8th inning when the Royals went nuts and scored 3 runs. The fans went nuts and it was such a great atmosphere. Lets just hope the rest of the season is this fun. Opening Day Pictures
