<p>Royals Review is not experiencing any technical difficulties.</p> <p>We've had an inside-the-park home run, the loss of the FOX feed, and some nice early work by Edinson Volquez, but the Royals now trail 3-1.</p>

<p>We never should have entrusted the feed to Yoenis Cespedes. </p> <p>In the fourth inning of the World Series, FOX, which has broadcast numerous World Series, Super Bowls and other major sporting events and should have good experience at this, lost the feed to the World Series. The delay held up the game for several minutes, with FOX experiencing difficulties in getting their broadcast feed back on the air, eventually using MLB Network's broadcast feed. The internet had a field day.</p>
