The Kansas City Royals clinched their second consecutive trip to the World Series on Friday with a 4-3 win over the Toronto Blue Jays, and owner David Glass is looking ahead to the Mets and, specifically, Daniel Murphy.
Murphy, of course, hit 14 home runs in the regular season and already has seven in nine postseason games, including a homer in each of his last six. Glass, it seems, has taken notice.

The reincarnation of Babe Ruth may be a bit strong and these types of runs are rarely sustainable, but all eyes will definitely be on Murphy when the World Series starts. Did you see the highlights from that game he basically won by himself? Though, perhaps Glass may want to worry more about the extremely formidable Mets pitching staff.
