Game 6 - "ACE" Ventura Time

The 2014 World Series Game 6 was over fairly quick. With 7 runs in the bottom of the 2nd the Royals had forced a game 7 against the San Francisco Giants. Then it was the Yordano Ventura show. With a RIP OT written on his hat in memory of his lost friend Oscar Taveras. The final score was 10-0 Royals. Mike Moustakis hit a late home run and set the Royals team record for home runs in the post season. Pretty good for a team that was dead last in the long ball in 2014.

Top of the first the stage was set after a 1, 2, 3 inning that included a great running catch by Lorenzo Cain. Ventura was sharp. Not strikeout sharp but it was an easy 7 inning shutout performance by the rookie flame thrower. There was even a little flash when he nabbed a bouncer back at him, a little leg kick and glove to knee tap then thrw the batter out. The future is bright for Yordano Ventura and the Kansas City Royals.

The ballpark was electric as you would expect it to be, but seeing it in Kansas City is something special. In my opinion, no matter what happens here everything past game 6 is gravy. Win or lose fans have their respect back for the Royals and are ready to stay on board as the Royals could maintain this for a couple of years. Sure I will be disappointed if game 7 ends with an island of bouncing orange and black in the middle of the diamond. But how sweet would it be to see a see of BLUE dancing around with the fans at Kauffman Stadium and throughout the Midwest!
