Those wacky Royals

[flashfire]

On one hand, Kansas City has scored 377 runs in 84 games, or 4.5 per.

On the other, 13.5% of those runs have come in just three games (17 each vs. PHI, STL & SEA).

In their other 81 games, they're averaging just 4 runs per.

Wow, that's actually a very interesting stat. I'm sure in the future baseball stats will account for outliers. I kind of like the way they are right now though because it leaves some deduction to your own two eyes. And I'm talking about when they're looking at games not stat sheets.

How many of those 17-run games occurred under a full moon?

Sounds about right....every month or so we win a game :)

I've secretly got a soft spot for royals fans. Okay, maybe not that secret. You kids is hardcore.

It's just that they have to give us hope in order to later crush us. So once in a while they blow someone out, look stellar, and then go back to sucking...

Though I do think they are getting better, showing some promise...
