For a Royals fan, it was crushing to see Oakland go up by 4 runs the way they did but I haven't seen a comeback of that magnitude like that since Game 6 of the '85 World Series. Great comeback and win and I'm thrilled I made the decision to head out and watch it in person at the last second....
btw...got to see the game with Family too. I'm on the right in the photo.... royals.jpg |

It was nice to see that small ball is still alive and well with the way that power has dominated the game over the last 25 years. It can take you far if you play it right.

Great game, but it hurt to see the A's eliminated. Still, this looks to be a fun postseason.

1:00 AM is too late a finish for me. Wish they'd start these things a little earlier. Sounded like a classic.

Can't believe Perez drove in the winning run. His ABs in the 8th and 10th were absolutely horrendous.
FWIW, KC would have been in and Oakland out, before Bud introduced this ridiculous second wild card.

All the people that complain about games ending too late can solve their problem by moving west. For Barry, he needs to move to Hawaii to be able to stay up late enough, but for most, California would be fine. Games don't end late there, they start early.
Great game. Not a fan of the A's because Billy Beane gets a lot of credit for someone with no WS rings in 17 years, but I would have rooted for them over seeing the Cardinals or Giants win again. Good luck to the Royals in the postseason, hope you lose to the Pirates in the series.

Was one of the better post season games played in a long time. Thought Oakland was going to win but not to be.

A great game. Yes, I feel bad for A's fans, but happy for the Royals and their fans. It's been a long drought for them.

A very valid question to be sure. I should have brought a change of clothes but instead decided to go with what I had on at work that day which consisted of Royals colors (sort of). At least I had a Royals hat on though

I was fortunate to be at the game as well. I was absolutely exhausted when it was over.
I was at the game 6 of the KC vs. St. Louis World Series games in 1985 and I thought that game 6 could never be surpassed (the famous comeback with the help of the Don Dekinger call), but I was wrong. Rob M. |

Although if you're discussing which game is more "significant", I think you still have to go with Game 6. That extended the Series to Game 7 and brought an abrupt end to any momentum the Cardinals had worked up prior. In Game 7, KC won huge. The Royals comeback in the 9th inning there was clearly the catalyst behind us winning the entire World Series. I'll gladly change my opinion though if we win the World Series this year

A great game last night! I am really hoping for a re-match of the 1985 World Series, only this time the Cardinals come out on top! |
