I am going against some sharp guys here, but when I think of this series and how close I think it should be, I am reminded of the the 1995 Cleveland Indians.
World Series Atlanta Braves Lost, 2-4
AL Championship Series Seattle Mariners Won, 4-2
AL Division Series Boston Red Sox Won, 3-0
Being in Cleveland it was there first World Series appearance since 1954 and the city was electric. Nothing could stop us, this was our time. They were a young and hungry team with plenty of swagger. Then they ran into the Braves dynasty. Bobby Cox I believe was the manager and the Braves had been a mainstay in the playoffs back then. I see the same happening here.
I'm sitting out this game but just don't see the Royals taking the series, even though the fan in me wants that to happen.
