Not since 1903.

Alcides Escobar just hit the first pitch of the WS for an inside the park home run.

Go Royals!

Turned the tv off. When my husband woke me up this morning and told me about this "epic game" I really kicked myself. That taught me to have more faith in my awesome team. GO ROYALS!!

This was the guy they traded for. (And they gave up a lot to get him.)

Oh, and it was ruled a hit, not an error even though Cespedes had a brain fart and screwed up.

I'm always happy the see a triple, touted as the hardest hit hit in baseball, but I guess an inside-the-park home run trumps that.
