Currently in 1st place.

I can't remember them being in first place in August since sometime in the 1980s.

They were my first favorite baseball team as a kid in 1969, their first year as an expansion team. My brother and I got free windbreaker jackets from Domino sugar or something like that, his jacket was a Seattle Pilots and mine was a Royals jacket. That was also the first year for the Seattle Pilots who later became the Milwaukee Brewers.

Anyway, good to see the Royals in contention for the first time since I can't even remember when.

Jamie, you still out there?
