2014 World Series

Naturally, I'm disappointed about this year's postseason. The Angels were the #1 seed in the AL, finishing with the best record in baseball, only to be swept by the Royals. The Dodgers were the #2 seed in the NL, and have the best pitcher on the planet, as well as the best #2 man. Unfortunately, the Cardinals appear to be Clayton Kershaw's kryptonite, beating him twice in four games to knock them out of the postseason too. Brady (Dodgers) and Devin (Angels) would have been disappointed - but that doesn't mean that they wouldn't have been interested in the World Series. In fact, Brady would have been rooting heavily for the Royals for three reasons: 1) A Dodger fan can't root for the Giants; 2) He played for the Royals in Little League; and 3) He likes rooting for the underdog - and the Royals haven't made the playoffs in almost 30 years. Although Devin would have been tempted to root for the Giants just to spite Brady, both he and Trey would have also rooted for the Royals due to the underdog factor. They appear to be a team of destiny - winning a record 8 straight games to start the postseason. They have also set other records with their late inning heroics. Let's go Royals!
