Yost has managed in the major leagues for 14 seasons, the last eight with the Royals. During that time, he has led the team to a 629-632 record. Kansas City made back-to-back trips to the World Series in 2014 and 2015, winning it in the latter year for the franchise’s first championship since 1985.
