Edinson Volquez will have his dad on his mind when he tries to pitch the Kansas City Royals to their first World Series title in 30 years on Sunday night.
Volquez's father, 63-year-old Daniel Volquez, died of heart failure hours before the right-hander started Game 1 on Tuesday.
Volquez said he got the news after Kansas City's 5-4, 14-inning win, then flew home to the Dominican Republic.
