Gettis Returns to Action

Though it hasn’t been that long since his 250-pound body patrolled the outfield, Royals fans may have forgotten Byron Gettis.

When Gettis made his debut on May 27, 2004, the Royals were 11 games out of first place and on their way to a 104-loss season. Gettis appeared in 21 games, hitting .179, and was waived at the end of the season.

Gettis is back in uniform. Playing football.
