and added OF Rondell White from the Padres with the season heading downhill — White had a good 22 games with KC before heading to Detroit via free agency.As is the team’s M.O. Berroa hit .287 with a .789 OPS, hit 28 doubles, scored 92 runs, hit 17 homers, stole 21 bases, K’d 100 times while walking 29 and tied Mike Macfarlane’s team record with 18 HBP. May put up a 3.77 ERA while leading the team at 10-8 but gave up 31 homers in 35 games (32 starts) and 210 IP. and Kyle Snyder (5.17 ERA, 1-6 record in 15 starts), Kris Wilson (5.33 ERA, 6-3, 13 HR allowed in 29 games (4 starts)), Miguel Asencio (5.21 ERA in 8 starts) and Paul Abbott (5.29 ERA in 8 starts) were the ugly. Albie Blowpez got his walking papers after a 12.71 ERA in 22 IP, Mike MacDougal had a nice rookie season with a 4.08 ERA and 27 saves in 64 games, Jason Grimsley finished second on the team’s season charts in appearances with 76 games of a 5.16 ERA in 75 IP, Carrasco pitched 80 innings and posted a 4.82 ERA and Kevin Appier was brought back from unemployment to post a 4.26 ERA in 19 IP late in the season. Other than that it was guys like Sean Lowe (6.25 ERA in 44 IP), Jason Gilfillan (7.71 ERA in 16 IP) and late season pickup Graeme Lloyd (10.95 ERA in 12 IP).The start was a big part of 2003’s success story in KC as the Royals won their first 9 games, 11 of the first 12 and 16 of the first 19 games to race to a 5 1/2 game lead in the AL Central on April 24. A 15-12 June got the team back within a 1/2 game of the Twinkies and a 15-11 July had them back in first by a game entering August. An 8-11 record versus Chicago would be part of the team’s undoing in 2003, as the Sox hastened the team’s descent with a late July sweep in KC and took 2 of 3 in Chicago in early August. The team matched August with a 13-15 September and ended the season losing 3 of 4 to Chicago to finish in third place, 7 games back of the division champ Twins in a pretty weak AL Central. The poor couple months that ended the ‘03 season and kept the team from the playoffs would be magnified over the next three seasons as the team posted three straight 100-loss seasons in an ever-strengthening division.2003 Pipeline Royals MVP — Carlos Beltran.

-ne A fire that swept through a home for the elderly and disabled in southern Russia killed at least 62 people early today, a toll that officials attributed to safety violations and a night watchmanâs negligence. In a country seemingly inured to unnatural deaths in accidents and attacks, the scale of the fire â the deadliest in Russia since the collapse of the Soviet Union more than 15 years ago â was jarring.The fire erupted in a government nursing home in Kamyshevatskaya, a small village on the Azov Sea, and it came as rescuers continued to search for survivors of an explosion in a coal mine in Siberia.

-ne Tony LaRussa was arrested early this morning on a Chacin, further proving that Spring Training is taken almost as seriously as Cleaning Day at my house. Police found LaRussa hunched over, sawing logs in the driver’s seat of his SUV earlier today.Now, I know what you’re thinking: “It’s wicked that Tony LaRussa is still getting shit-faced at the ripe old age of 62 (he doesn’t look a day over 61).
