Kansas City Royals Clinch Playoff Berth After 106 Losses, 85 Wins
Sep 28, 2024, 03:03 AM
The Kansas City Royals have clinched a playoff berth for the first time since winning the World Series in 2015. This marks only the fourth time in the past 35 years that the Royals have won 85 games in a season, with Salvador Perez as the starting catcher in all four instances. The Royals' remarkable turnaround comes after they had the second fewest wins last year, losing 106 games. This achievement makes them the first team in major league history to make the playoffs a year after losing at least 104 games. Bobby Witt Jr. will make his postseason debut, and the team clinched their spot thanks to the collapse of the Minnesota Twins, who went from 70-53 to 12-25 since August 17. The Royals' postseason berth was confirmed on September 26, 2024.
