   Bobby Witt Junior's two run homer is enough to beat the White Sox even though Charlie Sheen tried to give it away in the 9th.  The royals are scalding hot but a 9th inning change has to be coming.

   ICE working with Tennessee State Troopers set up a roadblock this week and stopped 150 cars with illegal aliens, drugs, gang members and everything else you can imagine.  Dems are losing their minds over this.

   The Kansas City Royals have returned from the dead and are the hottest team in baseball.  With a sweep of the Rays, KC is now 17-15.  Unbelievably, that's only two wins shy of the best in the whole American League.  The boys are playin' some ball and the 8-2 win was a complete beat down.

   A veteran pollster is in shock over the loyalty of Trump voters but I'm not.  It seems most of us put our country ahead of our own personal situation.  Of course we do.
   Noah Cameron from St. Joseph made his Major League debut against the Rays and pitched a no-hitter into the 7th inning.  This is a great, great story but has a bit of a catch to it.
