Spring Training Game II: Rangers at Royals

The Royals are playing more baseball, today! And Kyle Zimmer is going to pitch in a game situation for the first time since getting surgery to relieve the symptoms of his Thoracic Outlet Syndrome.

I originally started writing here about how much I loved that the development modern social media meant we could get images of the lineup card these days that let’s us see who is going to get to play the second half of the early spring training games.

Today’s game will be broadcast on 610 for all you local listener’s, so this may be your first chance to hear your favorite broadcasters tune up their pipes for the 2017 season, too.
