After Clinching Playoff Spot, Royals Look Ahead

kc-royalsCHICAGO (AP) — A day after the celebration, Hall of Famer George Brett was a little worn out but no less ecstatic.

The Kansas City Royals clinched a playoff spot for the first time in 29 years, and their greatest player sees no reason why they can’t make a run.

The franchise is back in the playoffs for the first time since Brett led them to a World Series championship in 1985.

Kansas City ended the longest playoff drought among the major North American sports leagues with a 3-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Friday.

Now, the Royals are looking for bigger things. They entered Saturday trailing Detroit by a game in the AL Central with two to play.
