We were fortunate to have some amazing baseball sky during the @Royals game this evening at the K.
Absolutely and hands down one of the single best places to visit anywhere, not just KC. And as the illustrious @nlbmprez says “It’s not just baseball history, it’s American history.”

Have to say the Hank Aaron tribute at the @MLB All Star Game was one of the coolest, non sports action, things I’ve ever seen at a sporting event. Tastefully done, incredible use of technology, and visually stunning. Awesome to experience.
This is easily one of my favorite @VPasquantino tweets ever. 👏👏👏
Sometimes I go out for mound visits with Sal or Freddy with Estevez, Zerpa, and Cruz where they only speak Spanish and have absolutely no clue what’s being said. But I give a good “vamo” at the end and feel like I contributed
I hear it’s incredible, however no @Royals baseball skies from me tonight. 😂🤷♂️ On a positive note Futures and All Star game pics coming soon.
That was a REALLY cold day in the photo well.
As Shohei Ohtani makes his Kauffman Stadium pitching debut today, this is actually not the 1st time he was scheduled to start here... On Jackie Robinson Day 2018, he & Eric Skoglund were scheduled, but freezing temps postponed what would have been Ohtani's 3rd career start!
Incredible player. Immortalized where he should be. Also… Incredible edit by @SamShazam_
Tough. Gritty. Fearless. The perfect ballplayer. And now, Royals Hall of Famer. #4everRoyal
Had to smile seeing a little nod to Buck in The NY Times mini crossword. @nlbmprez
This is just one of the things that go on quietly behind the scenes. It’s also a small part what makes the @Royals special. It’s an organization full of world class individuals that actually care about the person as much as the player.
Please read this. Congratulations Jose, Jesus and Leandro on their diplomas! And congratulations to Jeff Diskin, Jorge Guzman, Monica Ramirez, Randy Fernandez, Obnerys Dominguez, Fabio Herrera and many more with the #Royals who work so hard for both current and former players.
Moving on up. 💪💪💪
Earned their next challenge… #RaisingRoyals👑 #MovingDay ⬆️

That’s the kind of game that makes baseball amazing. Incredible pitching, solid defense, momentum swings, an incredible bunt, and a walk off @Royals win. WOW! If you aren’t watching the boys in blue right now you are missing out.
This might be my favorite Royals stat ever. Bunts are the best play in baseball!
Adding on to @DHoltzy here: American League catchers to record multiple bunt hits in the same game in the Divisional Era (1969-c): Freddy Fermin (#Royals) last night Mike Heath (OAK), May 9, 1981 Earl Williams (BAL), May 19, 1974 #FountainsUp | h/t @TruMediaSports
"If I'm starting a franchise today, give me #7 on the Kansas City @Royals." @markdero7 chronicles the all-around greatness of Bobby Witt Jr. in the midst of his 19-game hitting streak.
Sometimes the weather doesn’t allow you to make @Royals baseball photos. So instead you pivot, appreciate the raw power of Mother Nature and make lightning photos with The K! ⚡️⚾️👑
This is a bad take. Ken is actually a really good photographer and shooting on merit. He was also shooting professionally. The fact that he played baseball might open some doors, but it takes nothing away from his ability to shoot. Boost photogs up. Don’t tear them down.
Why? The Masters is the most exclusive media in sport. Professional sports photographers try to get into the event, cover professionally & are denied. Maybe we should have sports photographers play some baseball games and make the likes of KGR sit it out, skip checks
