Bay's Cruddy Apartment, Los Angeles, Thursday Morning
Bay was automatically suspicious when she picked up her phone and saw a few dozen people from Kansas City had texted her overnight. It was a relief when she realized that -- unlike the last several times this had happened -- nobody was arrested, dead or getting a divorce.
Instead, the Royals had made the World Series for the first time since 1985 ... and everybody Bay knew was losing their shit over it. This was what she got for having been raised by a former third baseman. It was actually sort of sweet to see them so happy, even as Bay remained resolutely apathetic to sports in general.
At least she got to mock her dad for having spent his entire professional baseball career between championship titles. Little things sometimes helped.
