KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Pass the tissues.
The Kansas City Royals tweeted an emotional video tribute to left fielder Alex Gordon Sunday morning, ahead of his final game with the team.
The video looks back on the life and career of the Lincoln, Nebraska, native in the years before and during his career with the Royals, including his clutch homer during the ninth-inning in Game 1 of the 2015 World Series run.
A legacy measured in gold, platinum, grass stains and postseason glory.
