Lowery's Miss Ends Chiefs' Bid in 2017
The Denver Broncos beat Kansas City 20 17 to secure at least a wild card and stay in the AFC West hunt. An attempt by Nick Lowery to send the game to overtime missed by inches with 24 seconds left.

The win improves Denver to 9 4 1 and strengthens home field playoff potential.

Royals Ender Balboni Deal as Free Agent Risk Grows
The Kansas City Royals refuse to offer Steve Balboni a contract for 1987, risking free agency at age 31 and a possible salary cut if signed later. GM John Schuerholz says Balboni’s earnings package is too high for a backup first baseman, amid prior back issues and limited 1987 production. Balboni, unhappy with last season, eyed a move elsewhere in 1988.
