It was clearly very difficult for Eric Hosmer to leave the Kansas City Royals.
Hosmer, now with the San Diego Padres, took out a full-page ad in both Saturday and Sunday’s Kansas City Star thanking Royals fans for their support over the years.

Up to this point, Hosmer had spent his entire career with the Royals. He became a star there and was a major part of the team’s first World Series winner in 30 years, so this is a bittersweet parting of ways.
That said, Hosmer is already doing well to endear himself to his new teammates. Life goes on, as they say.
