Chicago crushes the Royals so badly that we have a civic duty to turn this game off

The Royals scored their only run on a double play groundball after David Sandlin walked the bases loaded following a 10-run bottom of the third inning. This comes one night after the Royals were almost no-hit in Tampa Bay and lost 13-2. I’m not watching any more of this and neither should you.
