The Royals became World Series champions Sunday with a 7-2 victory in 12 innings over the New York Mets. It was the first championship for the Royals since 1985, which was fol- lowed by decades of losing baseball that caused many in the city to abandon the team. City officials said they ex- pect at least 200,000 people to pack into the 2.3-mile pa- rade route Tuesday through downtown Kansas City to cheer as the players, coaches and team officials drive by in a motorcade before a rally at Union Station.
