The 1985 World Championship pennant on my wall may be in jeopardy this year. (I never dreamed it would have to hang there for thirty years!)

Old enough to remember 85, still young enough to get worked up and nervous about this years playoffs.

It's almost like the Royals are looking to fall behind so they can make another comeback. They don't panic, they don't waste at-bats. They just spoil good pitches until they get a pitch they can handle, and it happens up and down the line-up.
