Yo dawg is gonna look like a show dawg
and your kitty will be pretty.
(AP) — Crown ‘em, Kansas
City!
One agonizing step from ecsta-
sy last season, this time the Royals
reign after their latest incredible
comeback and a go-ahead hit from
maybe the most unlikely player in
uniform.
Christian Colon singled home
the tiebreaking run in the 12th
inning and those bound-and-de-
termined Royals rallied one more
time to beat the New York Mets
7-2 in 12 innings early Monday
for their first World Series cham-
pionship since 1985 and second
overall.
Down two runs in the ninth,
Kansas City fought back in Game
5 against two of the top arms on
the pitching-rich Mets: Matt Har-
vey and Jeurys Familia. And the
Royals did it not with home run
power but instead a daring dash
from Eric Hosmer, a three-run
double by Lorenzo Cain, a couple
of crucial stolen bases.
Consistent contact, keep the
line moving.
And that’s how Series MVP
Salvador Perez and the Royals be-
came the first team since the 2002
Angels to come from behind in all
four World Series wins, accord-
ing to STATS. That’s how they
washed away the bitter taste of
last year’s Game 7 loss at home to
San Francisco, an October heart-
break that drove them to their sin-
gular focus all season.
Never waver. Win it all this
time.
Now, this group of homegrown
favorites that turned around a
floundering
franchise,
Mike
Moustakas and Alex Gordon and
Hosmer, can take their place in
Royals history alongside George
Brett, Willie Wilson, Bret Saber-
hagen and those champs from 30
years ago.
Lillard Scores 34 to Rally Blazers
(AP) — Damian Lillard had 34 points
and seven assists, and the Portland Trail
Blazers beat Minnesota 106-101 on Mon-
day night in Minneapolis.
Lillard made 14 of 25 shots, C.J. Mc-
Collum scored 18 points and Al-Farouq
Aminu had 17 points and nine rebounds Damian Lillard
for Portland.
The game started 30 minutes late due
to the pregame memorial service for Flip
Saunders, the Timberwolves president of
basketball operations, coach and minority
owner who died on Oct. 25 after complica-
tions with Hodgkins lymphoma.
