With yet another loss on Saturday, and just a hair over two weeks left of the regular season, a 7.0 game gap seems far too large for the Royals to overcome.
If that's the case and the postseason seems to be nothing more than fantasy for the Royals, they'll have to look for the small wins and feel good stories as the 2025 campaign closes.
Luckily for them, they were able to soften the blow of losing yet another game in which they held a lead by having their captain, Salvador Perez, reach a few pretty monumental career milestones.
