SURPRISE, Ariz. – Royals team leaders are on the field this spring to make sure they know the fundamentals. 

Those leaders are also off the field delivering their message to players to avoid pornography.

An Instagram post earlier this week from Fight The New Drug, an organization geared toward “Dropping knowledge on the harmful effects of pornography and sexual exploitation," showed Royals officials, including General Manager Dayton Moore, addressing a packed room about the dangers of porn.

The message has received nearly 7,500 likes since it was posted Monday.

It’s not the first time the team has taken a stance against pornography.

During a news conference last summer discussing starting pitcher Danny Duffy’s DUI citation, Moore’s remarks included a mention of pornography and the dangers it presents.
