And now, with the Royals likely headed back to the postseason for the first time since they won the World Series in 2015, the team is debuting a short film commemorating the 2014 season.
The Royals are releasing the film in partnership with former Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer’s media company, MoonBall Media. The film will present fans with a behind-the-scenes look at the 2014 season and their celebration this season.
“This is a story told by players, for players,” Hosmer said. “Returning to Kansas City for the celebration and reliving that run with the guys who made it all happen was something special, and now, we’re thrilled to share that story.”

“The 2014 postseason was one of the most unforgettable in baseball history,” Tony Snethen, Royals Vice President of Brand Innovation, said. “It included one of the greatest games ever against the Oakland A’s, followed by an incredible run to Game 7 of the World Series. This film provides an opportunity to honor and highlight that extraordinary group of players while giving fans a glimpse of what’s possible in postseason baseball. Collaborating with Hosmer’s MoonBall Media gave us unprecedented access to the team, allowing us to tell this unique story.”
