I-70 - Game 3

Today is game 3 of the I-70 series. This series has not let others down with both teams potentially feeling like they should be 2-0. The Royals won the game Friday night 5-4 and the Cardinals won the game last night 5-4.

Today is what is known as "get away day" in major league baseball, as (potentially both) teams are on a flight to another city following the game and motivation to play is typically low. Managers also use Sunday afternoons to give their regulars a day off and allow the bench players some time to stay "sharp".

I have always felt that if a manager could find a way to motivate their players on Sunday they would be able to steal 5-10 extra wins throughout the summer.

Here's to hoping Ned Yost finds a way to motivate the Boys in Blue today and win the series 2-1.
