THE DEFENDING CHAMPS--Kansas City opened the 2016 season as the two-time defending American League Champions, a franchise first, defeating the Mets to win the World Series crown last year after going to a Game #7 in the 2014 Fall Classic before succumbing to the San Francisco Giants...Kansas City’s A.L. title in 2015 was the fourth in franchise history, joining the 1980, ‘85 and 2014...the Royals are coming off a 95-67 regular season and their first American League Central championship, winning the division by 12 games...the last division title won by Kansas City was the 1985 A.L. West, when the club parlayed that triumph into its first World Series title...the 95 wins last year were the most by a KC squad since the 1980 Royals went 97-65...dating back to the start of the 2013 season, Kansas City has a 327-276 record for a .542 winning pct., the second best mark in the American League, and one win behind Baltimore (328) for most victories in the American League in that span, while trailing four National League clubs (St. Louis, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh and Washington). vs. Tigers (2016) vs. Tigers (career) On Road (career) Norris (career) Verlander (career)
