Seth Lugo Has Waited Eight Years For This<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Royals starter Seth Lugo (16-9, 3.00 ERA) was a 34th-round draft pick of the Mets in 2011, had numerous injuries in the minor leagues, did not get a chance in the majors until he was 26, and was told repeatedly that he did not have the durability to be a starting pitcher.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, a few months from turning 35, he is an All-Star and a top starter for the surprising Royals as they hope to advance to the American League Division Series by defeating the favored Orioles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Royals pitcher Seth Lugo, who is set to take the hill Wednesday in Game 2, told reporters Tuesday that pitching in the playoffs is something he's been looking forward to "for a long time."https:\/\/t.co\/MCtzEEvR52<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/zJdYMdqjxb<\/a><\/p>— KSHB 41 News (@KSHB41) October 1, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote>
