Yes the Kansas City Royals took two of three at Kaufmann Stadium a few weeks back as both teams were in first place then and both are holding the #1 slot now. Now we get more drama as the Royals come off of snacking on Twinkies at the Big Target Center in the Twin Cities. The Redbirds are coming off a long Motel Swing as they still hold first in the NL Central!
