last night's win

Right in the middle for a reason. Took last night by 5. That matters. Working against that, a 2-5 week weighs heavy on the score.

Royals News

Stephen Kolek delivered a gem today, throwing a complete-game shutout as the Royals routed the Seattle Mariners 5-0, finally snapping a dismal skid that saw them drop six of their last seven. With this performance, Kolek not only showcased his talent but also reminded fans why he’s a key piece of the rotation moving forward. This win comes at a crucial time for the Royals, who’ve struggled offensively, averaging just 1.9 runs per game over the previous week. Meanwhile, Cole Ragans took a significant step toward rejoining the team, impressing in his rehab start. If he can return to form, it may provide a much-needed boost for a squad sitting at 20-31 and trying to turn the tide in the AL Central.
