6 Orthodox Reasons To Love The Royals

No matter if you are a bandwagon fan, or a die-hard fan all these reasons just seem to make sense.

Jun 06, 2016

Baseball season is in full swing and the Kansas City Royals are back, and just as exciting to watch as always. The defending champions have already had their fair share of setbacks, but just like the Royals are known for doing, they push through it. Enjoy this short list of reasons to love your Kansas City Royals.

1. Salvy's famous post game ice baths

Everyone knows it is coming and someone different always receives it.The Salvy ice bath to the player of the game. Nothing is greater than seeing Salvy bright eyed and smiling running out of the dugout with the giant cooler.

2. Wade Davis

One of the best if not the best closer in the MLB. The name Wade Davis is sure to send shivers down a batter's spine. The man has one of the nastiest change-ups known to man.

3. Dugout Interactions

It doesn't matter who is in the dugout there is always some sort of celebration or personal handshake going down. It is very entertaining to watch as well.

4. The comebacks

Down seven to one in the ninth against the Chicago White Sox, and missing a few of our starters to top it off. No problem! The good ol' boys in blue pulled out a win! There is never a dull moment of baseball with this team.

5. Hosmer

Sure he is a good ball player, but he also drives the ladies crazy. Eric Hosmer is one fine looking fella.

6. Whit Merrifield

This guy can do it all. Plays anywhere on the field, can hit well, and has impeccable sense of the game. He is currently on a seven game multi hit streak in his first 11 MLB starts. Could he be the one to fill the hole of the missing Ben Zobrist?

Although they still look rocky at times, there is nothing better than watching some Royals baseball. Can we repeat the World Series win for a third straight trip and a second straight win? Only time will tell.

One of my biggest pet peeves is when someone does not try to help their self before asking others. How can someone else be expected to help you if you do not first do that yourself? I'm all about helping those that need it when the time comes, however whenever someone does not even attempt to help him or herself first then that becomes a huge problem. As we all have learned, people tend to take advantage of us in one way or another. I am sure we all read this short story when we were younger and it follows that same principle:
