The Royals showed me something in that A's game. I knew that we couldn't take them lightly and I will not be surprised if we lose this series. With us not hitting and them showing a pretty darn good ability to manufacture runs, pitch and demonstrate amazing team speed, they are not a team that we match up with well. Not saying its over, but this is going to be a tough series and if Trout, Pujols and Hamilton don't earn their pay, we are done.
