The Royals entered the season as the defending World Series champions determined to become the first team since the 1999 New York Yankees to win back-to-back World Series titles. The season started on April 3 with a World Series rematch at home against the New York Mets.[1] The first series began with a 10 mile long relay of the first pitch from Kansas City Union Station to Kauffman Stadium benefiting the Kansas City MLB Urban Youth Academy.[2] The Royals were eliminated from postseason contention with four games yet to play, marking four straight World Series champions that missed the playoffs the following year.[3] They finished the season with an 81–81 record and third place in the division.
