A Royal Blues year in review

This isn’t at all self-indulgent! It’s more like a roller coaster where I’m the only person having fun! JANUARY Thanks to the wonders of MS Paint, I predicted what Rick Ankiel would look like as a Royal. Friends and I went to the Royals Caravan in Lincoln, and told Ryan LeFebvre about the Ryan LeFebvre …

Quick note on photos

As it says on my photography page, anyone is welcome to use my pictures for blogs or whatever, as long as I’m properly credited. I also like to see how people are using …

Final game at Rosenblatt Stadium tonight…

These sweet/ominous storm clouds eventually dumped on the Blatt Tuesday night.

It’s hard to believe this day is actually here. I’ve tried all season to figure out how I feel about historic Rosenblatt Stadium going away, and I’ve wondered what this day would be like. So far, it’s normal: I’m half-listening to a class lecture and wishing I had eaten breakfast. Pretty typical. But what will …

The O-Royals’ current bunch of middle-infielders includes Luis Hernandez, Tug Hulett, Mario Lisson, Travis Metcalf, and Irving Falu – although Falu also plays outfield. Luis Hernandez has played shortstop exclusively since being demoted from the big …

DiNardo wins, Kila close to O-Royals record for walks

This is Take Two of this entry – our lovely (read: Piece of *&!%* garbage) blogging software decided to completely erase everything I had written, and the photos I had inserted. At the Major League level, the Royals are awful at getting on base. They rank 3rd-to-last in all of the Majors in OBP, and …

As of yesterday evening, something like 18,000 tickets had already been sold – not all because of Gordon, of course, but because this was to be one of our two …
