The Kansas City Royals are in the playoffs and intend to take the crown. They’re even finding support among the youngest of fans.
Newborns in the Mother-Baby unit at The University of Kansas Hospital in Kansas City, Kan., are sporting pink and blue Royals caps. Employees and parents are both rooting for the Royals as they make their first post-season appearance, in 29 years, Tuesday night in a Wild Card game at Kauffman Stadium.
“We encourage employees to wear a sea of blue tomorrow and show their support as the Royals take on the Oakland A’s,” Bob Page, president and CEO, said.
Newborns Olivia Campos and Christoph Xavier Rose both seemed to enjoy their caps making their parents all the more proud to be Royals fans.
The hospital is in its fourth year as the official health care provider to the major league club.
