While going through the worst moments in franchise history, a couple of readers asked me to look at the 2004 doubleheader between the Royals and the Expos. I didn’t recall that specific game, but having more than a bit of morbid curiosity, I agreed to take a look under the hood.
Even though the Royals have always been, and will always be, my team, I was a bit disconnected from Kansas City baseball in 2004. Most of my time was spent being a husband and father, working and coaching my son’s baseball and soccer teams. That’s probably a good thing, since those were the dark ages in franchise history.
