This sign was 100 percent accurate.

During the Royals’ 5-4 win over the Twins on Sunday, outfielder Melky Cabrera launched a two-run home run to right field and the ball nearly hit a sign held by what I can safely say was one of his biggest fans at Target Field.

The fan had a sign that said “Melk Man Delivers.” Yep, that’s exactly what Cabrera did in this instance. His sixth-inning homer gave the Royals a 3-2 lead.
