On April 27, 2007, Royals Review founder Will McDonald penned a tongue-in-cheek article about the Mariners/Royals lineup. The comments are lost. The images he lovingly created in Microsoft Paint? Also lost.
But the text, yes, the text remains. Will talked about the war tearing the area apart, and focused on Grass Creek, Wyoming, 945 miles away from Seattle and 948 miles away from Kansas City. The Royals/Mariner games, he said, were the Battle for Grass Creek, the midpoint way station between the two teams.
It is that day. Tonight, the Royals and Michael Wacha will travel to Seattle to face the Mariners and George Kirby.
