There is a really great interview over at Royals Corner with former Royals pitcher Jim York. York was the first player the Royals signed to reach the big leagues. He spent two years with the Royals before being dealt with pitcher Lance Clemons for first baseman John Mayberry.
Interesting stuff in the interview, including thoughts on managers Bob Lemon and Jack McKeon, mid-season interleague exhibition games, and problems with blisters (where have we heard that before?)

That is a nice interview, thanks for the link.
I'm intrigued by this John Mayberry guy they keep mentioning in the interview. Maybe one of these days there will be an article where I can read about his years as a Royal.
Or maybe I just need to go over to Bluebird Banter, and content myself with an article about him as the 41st best Blue Jay...
The other fellow KC traded to get Mayberry, Lance Clemens, just passed away in Florida.
