Jarrod Dyson of the Royals Channels Joe Namath

Joe Namath famously predicted his heavily underdog NY Jets would beat the Baltimore Colts in Super Bowl III and his prognostication became reality when the Jets won 16-7.

Jarrod Dyson has predicted that his Kansas City Royals would not be returning to Baltimore for a game 6 in the ALCS.

When asked by Kansas City Star reporter Andy McCullough if Dyson expects the game to return to Baltimore for a 6th game, Dyson said, "No sir, I don't and I don't think the Orioles think that way either".

Royals Take Two in Baltimore, Lead ALCS 2-0

The Kansas City Royals won their ninth consecutive playoff game dating back to their World series win in 1985 when they took the final three games against the St. Louis Cardinals to win the World series.

Mike Moustakas continued hie home run tear by belting his fourth long ball of these playoffs in the 4th inning of the Royals 6-4 victory last night.

Moustakas had this to say about the Royals winning two games in Baltimore. "To come in here and win two games against a great team like that, it's huge for us".
