Royals snap latest skid, we take on the 9-9-9
By Adam Gardner | May 18, 2026 The Kansas City Royals snapped their six-game losing streak Sunday, beating the St. Louis Cardinals, 2-0. I was part of a group of people taking on the 9-9-9 Challenge on the same day. World-class athletes doing incredible feats of strength were everywhere. Royals skid The latest KC losing

Weekend warriors
By Adam Gardner | May 11, 2026 I’m formally launching a petition for the Royals to only play games on Friday-Sunday because they are the weekend warriors. Kansas City has gone 8-1 in Friday, Saturday and Sunday games since April 23, and just 3-5 in games Monday-Thursday. This is clearly very scientific data that is

Royals playing with swagger
By Adam Gardner | May 7, 2026 It appears the Royals are playing with swagger. Or, as Bobby Witt Jr. has said in the past, “the boys are playing some ball.” Kansas City stretched its winning streak to 5 games before losing to Cleveland on Wednesday night. Even with the loss, the Royals have shown

Royals secure winning road trip
By Adam Gardner | May 4, 2026 Don’t look now, but the Kansas City Royals just put together a winning road trip. The Royals entered the recent western swing with an abysmal 2-10 record on the road, but they took one from the A’s in Sacramento and then swept the Seattle Mariners over the weekend.

It’s gonna be May
By Adam Gardner | April 30, 2026 You know the song just like I do – NSYNC singer and teen heartthrob Justin Timberlake belts out the lyrics with a weird pronunciation, “It’s gonna be me.” Except the songwriters specifically wanted Timberlake to pronounce “me” oddly, and it comes out sounding like “May.” And ever since,

Winning changes everything
By Adam Gardner | April 27,2026 Isn’t it amazing how winning changes everything? The doom and gloom of an eight-game losing streak weighed heavily on us, fans of the Kansas City Royals, and I assume it weighed heavily on the players, management and front office staff as well. But then the Royals bats came alive

Losing streak is dead, for now
By Adam Gardner | April 23, 2026 The Kansas City Royals losing streak is dead, for now, after a walk-off win Tuesday night. Actually it was a run-off, a wild-pitch off really, that allowed Maikel Garcia to score from third with the winning run. It capped off a game in which the Royals had to

A team with no plan
By Adam Gardner | April 20, 2026 The Kansas City Royals appear to be a team with no plan. The Royals are in the midst of a seven-game losing streak and there is nothing that looks good right now. They actually scored runs on Thursday but Lucas Erceg blew a 2-run lead in the ninth

Second verse as painful as the first
By Adam Gardner | April 16, 2026 The Royals road trip didn’t get off to the rollicking start we fans hoped. It was déjà vu all over again as Kansas City lost back-to-back games to the Detroit Tigers by identical scores of 2-1. Your eyes don’t deceive you – Royals pitchers gave up 4 runs

Something has to change for the Royals
By Adam Gardner | April 13, 2026 We’re just over two weeks into the 2026 season but something has to change for the Royals. The Boys in Blue are 7-9 and just wrapped up a four-game series against the White Sox that the teams split, 2-2. Kansas City’s runs scored in those four games went
