The Oakland A's just got swept by the Kansas City Royals, and it is what it is. The team with the best record in the league beat a team with one of the worst records, even though the A's came in on a major hot streak. The A's might well pick up tonight right where they left off in Texas, and all we would have learned is that the Royals are really good this year. Even at Oakland's best, they still might not win a series against Kansas City.
But there is one aspect of that series that I just couldn't handle.
