A lifelong Royals fan, born and raised in Kansas City. I loved playing and watching baseball as a kid. Since my love for baseball was developed, I've wanted to gain as much knowledge as I can about the sport. I decided to take my thoughts to a blog. Kings of Kauffman is my first chance to write about my hometown team and I am thrilled.
