Jonny Gomes steals show with stirring speech at Royals’ victory parade — VIDEO

Jonny Gomes wasn't even on the Royals' postseason roster, but that didn't stop the veteran outfielder from stealing the show Tuesday at Kansas City's World Series victory parade.

Gomes, a positive clubhouse presence who appeared in 12 games for the Royals after he was acquired in an Aug. 31 trade with the Atlanta Braves, waved a giant American flag on stage before grabbing the microphone and asking for a moment of silence in memory of Mike Moustakas' mother, Chris Young's father and Edinson Volquez's father, who all died in the past four months.

"It's unbelievable what those boys did," Gomes said. "It's unbelievable what they did! It's unbelievable what they did! They stole bases, they hit homers. Hey guess what, Cy Young winner, not on our team, beat him. Rookie of the year, not on our team, we beat him. MVP of the whole league, (turns around) sorry guys not on our team. But we beat that guy too!

"You know why we beat them. Because all of you all people had our backs. And (general manager) Dayton Moore put this team together and (manager Ned) Yost delivered it by being the captain of the ship.

"You all want to be politically correct, I'm the un-politically correct person. We whooped their ass!"

Gomes, 34, then literally dropped the mic and was mobbed by his teammates as the crowd exploded.
