New York has the advantage offensively. Kansas City has the pitching advantage.

Feels like we have seen this story before.

I've gotten a flood of messages from my brother,cousins/uncles giving me grief about the Astros being eliminated. They better hope that the Yanks advance or I'm never letting them live this down.

Yanks in 3.

In 2004, I had been working frozen food at a supermarket, and when I could get away with it, in the ALCS and World Series I was wearing my Red Sox hat on the clock. Had to give it up a couple days after. Anyways like a week or so late, this guy who i knew to be a regular customer, but never spoken to, is there wearing a shirt that has a graphic depicting how many more World Series trophies the Yankees had over the Red Sox, and it pointed out something about how that year didn’t make up for all the others the Yankees won. He took a long time and was making sure I saw it. Just extraordinary levels of bitterness.

I've come across more than a few people lik that . With my family its usually all in good fun but after the cheating thing came to light a couple of my cousins have been dickish from time to time. It wasn't too bad back in 2022 though , because every single one of them had already given up on the season when their offense completely disappeared towards the last couple months of it. They fully expected us to beat them anyways. This year they've been guardedly optimistic and I guess that kicked into overdrive after we got swept . Jerks lol.

It's just so cringeworthy, and it's the large majority of Yankee fans doing the same thing.

Like, the astros absolutely owned your ass for years and won multiple championships and yankees haven't done shit. I really don't get it. Should be thankful and humble it's over......

Yankees have no excuses to not reach the world series, if they can't beat the Royals and then Tigers/Indians this year, they're never gonna do it.

Judge has got to perform in the playoffs

 

[Suntouchable13]

Please Royals, take them out! Yankees are so off putting. Really dislike that franchise.

 

[BMOK33]

As usual in short series nowadays where the bye team has an ace going first, if they don't win it gets interesting fast. If somehow KC wins game 1 the Yankees might have problems.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Think KC wins a game but the cinderella story ends after that. Yanks in 4.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Epic squander by the Yanks in the 1st. 2nd and 3rd 0 out...no runs.

 

[GKJ]

Yankees bases loaded

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

Royals regain the lead!

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Royals pitchers are garbage,

It's the reason they are here along with Witt.

Garcia just barely gets Stanton.

Garcia just barely gets Stanton.

And yet they are having trouble with a mediocre team like the Yankees.

 

[John Price]

Yankees win game 1!

 

[Boss Man Hughes]

Yankees win game 1!

Of course. Umpires kissing Yankee ass.

Mediocre..... yeah ok.

 

[BMOK33]

Not sure I ever saw Rodon look that good ever

 

[Terry Yake]

costas really wonders why gurriel gets booed at yankee stadium? lmao

 

[Halladay]

That was belted.

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

The ''ump cam homer'' has changed everything, Royals go up 3-1.
