The Royals Fail Terrence
The Kansas Royals beat the Oakland A's yesterday 2-1, bringing their losing streak to an end at 19 games.
Current Royals right-fielder Terrence Long was playing with the A's in 2002, when Oakland won 20 games in a row, defeating Kansas City for the 20th victory.
But alas, as Kansas City went for its 20th consecutive loss against Oakland, the Royals choked and won, denying Terrence the priviledge of being the only player since 1900 to be on a team that won 20 in a row and lost 20 in a row.
Add to this that the Oakland Athletics used to be the Kansas City Athletics, and my head nearly explodes in an interconnected web of baseball geekdom.

No matter where the A's play, I am sure they take along with them plenty of Athletics Supporters.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
