On March 8, 2015, the Royals took the field for a Spring Training game against the Angels. The sun was out. Spring was in the air. Hope abounded. But then, THE BEES:

The game was delayed two separate times, but thankfully, professionals were on the case -- a Tempe beekeeper defused the situation, and a nation tried to move on. Months passed. The Royals got crowned. Baseball went on undisturbed. All was right with the world.
But oh, how naive we were. The bees were merely plotting their bee revenge -- and on Tuesday, exactly one year since their first assault, they returned. And this time, they came for the dugout.
