Down 19-0 heading into the bottom of the 9th last night in KC, the never say die Royals sacked up and got a run before the rally was snuffed out.
The Twins won the game 19-1 and had to be upset at allowing the Royals to score. I'm sure Kansas City was celebrating the fact that they made the Twins sweat and that "nobody shuts out the Royals."
From the have a night department (good): Joe Mauer went 5-5 with 7 RBI's. Also, Danny Valencia went 4-4 with his first major league homer, a grand slam. He became the first Minnesota player to hit a grand slam on his first career dinger.
From the have a night department (bad): Zack Greinke allowed 8 earned runs in 4-innings to drop to 6-10 on the year with a 4.01 ERA. I don't think he'll repeat as the Cy Young Award winner.
The Royals should give the 19-thousand who showed up a refund. I was thinking about giving them free tickets but that would be a cruel thing to do.
