Twitter reacts to Kansas City clinching its 1st World Series since 1985

Baseball Twitter reacts to the Royals sweeping the ALCS.

It turns out the Royals just need to be in the playoffs to be dominant, as they've stretched their playoff win-streak to 11, dating back to 1985. They just polished off a four-game sweep of the Orioles, meaning they've dusted the two best teams (by record) in the American League.

The best part is they did it mostly via the long ball, despite being the worst team in baseball at hitting home runs during the regular season. It doesn’t hurt that Ned Yost began turning to his elite bullpen before the seventh inning. As you might expect, when a fanbase goes 28 years in between postseason — much less World Series — trips, they’re going to respond with... enthusiasm.
