Today, we are happy to introduce our fledgling TrueBlueKCstar Instagram account, the official Instagram of our popular True Blue app covering all things Royals.

We aim to share the great Royals photos taken by Star photographers, capture the scene at Royals games, and celebrate Royals fandom (and we’re happy to #regram).

Today, sports writer Rustin Dodd is in Chicago to find Royals fans who have traveled to see the boys in blue play the Cubs at Wrigley Field for the first time since 2001. Here are some of his posts (he says this first one is the “best shirt” he’s seen so far).

There are a lot of Royals fans in Chicago. That is all. (At Murphy's)

And here’s a favorite of Eric Hosmer.

Eric Hosmer (@hosmer305) seems hotter than ever -- at bat. From Sam Mellinger: "This talent has always been in Hosmer, but the timing here — hot right away, following up his breakout in the playoffs – suggests we are seeing a star on the rise." Hosmer, 25, has hit 4 home runs in 8 games. Here he is waving himself home in a two-run double in the May 7 game against the Indians. #foreverroyal #royals #kcroyals #erichosmer #hosmer #mlb #baseball #truebluekc #trueblueroyals
