KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Kansas City Royals battered the San Francisco Giants 10-0 last night to force a decisive Game 7 in the World Series. Eric Hosmer chopped a two-run double over shortstop in a seven-run second inning. Jeremy Guthrie starts tonight for Kansas City and Tim Hudson for San Francisco in a rematch of Game 3...

Usually this late in October, the talk of Kansas City and really all around is either Kansas City Chiefs or Mizzou football. The Kansas City Royals run is usually over, but not this year. Royals fans have finally been treated to seeing them not only in the playoffs, but also making the World Series...

Let's say you're in a bar watching the big game and strike up a conversation with this guy. Do not make any bets with him.

A World Series berth led to a World Series birth.

The Cinderella story of the Kansas City Royals meets the biennial excellence of the San Francisco Giants in the 2014 World Series beginning on Tuesday in Kansas City. Here's a preview of what to expect in this year's edition of the Fall Classic:

First, San Francisco Giants pitcher Madison Bumgarner drank four beers at once, then, he polished off five simultaneously, so was there ever a doubt he'd do six?

Travis Ishikawa hit a game-winning, three-run homer off Michael Wacha in the bottom of the ninth inning, and the Giants beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-3, in San Francisco on Thursday night to win Game 5 of the National League Championship Series and advance to the World Series for the third time in five years.

We already knew Paul Rudd was a fun guy. But this just takes it to a whole new level.

Eric Hosmer's first-inning ground ball produced two runs, and the Royals completed a four-game sweep of the Baltimore Orioles with a 2-1 victory in Game 4 of the American League Championship Series in Kansas City on Wednesday afternoon.

Much like the Kansas City Royals and their improbable playoff run, this guy knows how to sneak up on people.
