Royals ' World Series hopes lost Baseball fans in the Kansas City area had been hoping for a World Series team since ma- jor league baseball came to Kansas City in April 1955, but they were disappointed again this year when the Royals failed to make their long- awaited dream come true. Having recorded 102 wins, the Royals took a slight advantage into the play-offs because their total victory mark surpassed those of all other major league teams. They also looked strong at the end of the season by posting a late-season 21 out of 22 game winning streak. Although their record was impressive, the real test did not come until they started their journey toward Ring Lardner ' s World Serious, known to most baseball fans as the World Series. But once again the Royals played a repeat performance of their 1976 season and saw their World Series chances destroyed in the ninth inning of Play-Off Game five. With the Royals holding on to a 3-2 lead go- ing into the ninth inning. New York scored three runs against Dennis Leonard, Larry Gura and Mark Littell to make the score 5-3. After the Yankees scored their runs, the Royals had one last chance at the victory in the bottom of the ninth. Darrell Porter made a quick out on a pop-up, but Frank White came up with a single. With one man on base, the Royals had a glimpse of hope, but the game quickly came to an end when Fred Patek grounded into a dou- ble play. The score remained 5-3 and the Yankees captured the American League Cham- pionship and moved on to win the World Series against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Even though the game had come to an end, the 41,133 fans who filed out of Royals Stadium were unable to leave the memories of the 1977 season behind. The most memorable moment was the silence that descended on the stadium when the Yankees scored the winning run. Although it was the winning run for the Yankees, it was much more for the Royals. It was a second chance at the American League pennant slipping through their fingers. It was a loss that again kept Kansas City from attaining their ultimate goal of reaching the World Series.
