"Dayton Moore (born February 17, 1967) is the general manager of the Kansas City Royals." - there's some information that I feel is missing from this portion of text such as Moore's nationality and that he is a baseball executive
Added
"Moore's began his baseball career" - {{xt|Moore's baseball career began}
Done
"Moore originally served in scouting department" - can be worded to say in the, in its or in the team's
"Moore was born on February 17, 1969" - Baseball Reference and the infobox state Moore was born in 1967 not 1969
Fixed, likely typo
"Moore claims to have watched the 1985 World Series in Kansas City from I-70." - Interstate 70 for non-American and baseball readers
Done
Wikilink undergraduate degree and master's degree
Done
"Moore received a master's degree in Athletic Administration from George Mason in 1992, and served as an assistant baseball coach at George Mason" - the close repetition of the university's name should be avoided
"before his promotion in 2002 to director of player personnel development." - this can be written as either before his 2002 promotion to director of personnel development or before his promotion to director of player personnel in 2002
Used the first option
"The Kansas City Royals offered Moore a job as the team's general manager, and Moore took the job" - offered Moore employment
Done
"saying "I think the player has earned the opportunity to play professional baseball." [16]" - the space after the quote and the reference is not needed
Removed
"also help set the stage for the Royals' two World Series teams" - I believe there is a more formal way of wording the text in bold but cannot conjure it up
Changed to "provided important pieces for the Royals' two World Series teams", is that better?
