Royals fans share memories of Yordano Ventura, one year after his death

One year ago, our hearts were ripped out of our chests in KC. I remember every moment of that day.



Still not much easier after all this time. #RIPAce #Ace30 pic.twitter.com/VxAl4cENTk

At 2015 FanFest, Yordano autographed a 2014 WS shirt for me. This photo isn't the best, but I was so glad I got to meet him. His smile could light up a room. His fierce spirit could attack pitching like a lion. #RIPACE #ACE30 pic.twitter.com/9pHAvGBQTz
