(last updated on December 9, 2025)
If you go to Middle America, you will find the Kansas City Royals. Born in 1969, this middle-market franchise has 10 playoff appearances, 4 American League pennants, and 2 World Series titles (1985 and 2015). That includes a 10-year stretch from ‘76 to ‘85 when they made the postseason seven times. Their battles with the Yankees in the late 70s were epic and feisty. Further adding to this city’s fervent baseball history … Kansas City is the home of the Negro Leagues Baseball Museum and where the Kansas City Monarchs, maybe the most successful team in the Negro Leagues, played from the 1920s to the early 1960s. Baseball has always had a thriving heartbeat in KC, and with a solid young nucleus in place now, it appears the Royals will be American League contenders for the foreseeable future. Grab yourself some burnt ends as we count down the all-time leaders in home runs for the Kansas City Royals.
