If you're one of the people on the Royals bandwagon, this story will only make you root harder for the team.
Royals relief pitcher Brandon Finnegan came through for a fan on Twitter who had asked for playoff tickets.
Not only did Finnegan respond to the request ("Help a broke Royals fan out with a couple of playoffs tix so I can take my gf"), but he followed through with the fan over a four-day span.
Nicholas Knapple made his request on Oct. 10. Finnegan gave Knapple the official word that he had tix for him on Oct. 13.
As if that wasn't enough, Finnegan also said he'd go eat some BBQ with the dude, who seemed genuinely touched by the whole situation.
Check out the exchange below:
