Kansas City Royals vs. Toronto Blue Jays

Kansas City Royals vs. Toronto Blue Jays at Kauffman Stadium

Kansas City against Toronto gives May 9 a baseball plan with history behind it. The Blue Jays visit Kauffman Stadium, putting the Royals at home against a franchise longtime supporters have a particular reason to remember.

Kansas City defeated Toronto in the 2015 ALCS on the way to its World Series title, and that October victory still colors the matchup for followers who remember the run. Think of what made following that team enjoyable: the anticipation, the people you watched with or the pleasure of having the Royals at the center of your plans. This visit is a reason to reconnect with that affection.

There is American League divisional curiosity here, too. Toronto belongs to the East, Kansas City to the Central. The new meeting gives both fan bases a result to pursue, with no need to pretend this regular-season contest is another ALCS. Enjoy the old connection while leaving room for a new game to hold your attention.

Sunday offers a date to make an outing of it. Put the innings ahead of the errands for a while, wear the allegiance you want to back and enjoy caring about a team before the score is final. Baseball memories begin with games you decide to attend.
