Royals vs. Nationals

We went to the Royals game vs. the Nationals.  As usual, we got there very early for batting practice and the kids collected souvenir games at the end of the game.  There was a promotion where they gave out Negro Leagues Baseball shirts.  Needless to say, we were in the first 10,000 since we were waiting in line over a half hour before the gates opened.  The Royals were on a skid after doing great and unfortunately they lost to the Nationals.

 A picture during the game.  I believe Hosmer is on first.  The Royals are wearing Kansas City Monarch uniforms from the Negro Leagues (Red) and the Nationals were wearing Grays uniforms (blue and gray) so they were both in the wrong color!  I kind of liked the Negro Leagues uniforms, though.  They were cool!!

 Justin Maxwell playing in right field.  He was the closet player to where we were sitting!
