Royals fans shower Johnny Cueto with love

Wow, Johnny Cueto.

Cueto threw eight innings of two hit-ball as the Royals won Game 5 of the American League Division Series on Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium.

Royals fans were thrilled with the performance: eight innings, two hits and two runs.

Regardless of how this game ends, the Cueto trade was well worth it based on his performance tonight when it mattered most.

Regardless of how good/bad Cueto has been with KC up until tonight, he just made that trade worth it

Cueto was seriously on a whole different level tonight.
