For Pete's Sake

Royals’ ALDS celebration took an unfortunate turn for one little kid

In some cities, a playoff series-clinching victory is followed by violence.

Not so in Kansas City. However, Jason Vargas’ child took a tumble following the Royals’ 7-2 victory over the Astros at Kauffman Stadium.

This is Jonny Gomes swinging his child at Kauffman Stadium, and the child who runs into the picture is Vargas’ child.

Take a look:

It is my understanding the child is fine.
