To our Kansas City Royals family:
In these extraordinary times, we hold the health and safety of our families, teammates, friends and neighbors as our top priority. We know that sports, while deeply embedded in our lives, should never stand in the way of the greater good.
Watching fans come through the gates at Spring Training this week as vendors set up and players prepared to take the field — only to learn that the game would be cancelled in response to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) — is a scene none of us will ever forget.
