Still feels odd to actually say that the 2014 AL Wild Card Game was literally a decade ago. Still feels like it was 5 minutes ago.
It was hope, stress, dread, joy, jubilation, celebration and release all mashed together.. That KC stuck it out playing nearly 5 hours over 12 innings. As if the Royals noting being to the post season for so long that they were trying to make up for lost time and play as much ball as possible.
Then in the bottom of the 12th, Salvy, our Captain, our Big Man, hits that grounder into left field and seemingly exercised our baseball demons via years of HORRIBLE Royals baseball in a single swing.
September 30th, 2014 was the night baseball was reborn in Kansas City.

Greatest game ever played
Without a doubt the best game I have ever seen
That game still gives me chills when I think about it
I was at this game. First row section 106.
My wife and I were there and I just had my appendix out, Doctor said go just do get too excited and rip your stitches. Opps
Just the best day.
Without a doubt the greatest baseball game of all time. My dad pulled me out of school and we drove 3 hours to be at this game. Thought we had completely wasted our time once the game got to the 6th inning. Couldn’t have been more wrong. Got home at 3 am and went to school the next day. Worth it.
Gonna have to throw it on my phone while I work today
I legitimately watch this game about once a month
