A look back at the 1995 Royals
Greg Gagne and Gary GaettiThis year’s work stoppage has resulted in a shortened spring training and could very well lead to a shortened regular season if labor issues aren’t resolved soon. The last time baseball faced a shortened spring training and regular season came in 1995, when a strike finally ended and brought the game back after a seven month hiatus. The 1995 season would mark the end of one era of Royals baseball and begin a new youth movement that would lead to nearly two decades of futility.
