Kansas City begins home stand the same way they played their entire road trip–with a loss[*1] .
“There are reasons you win and reasons you lose,” Royals manager Buddy Bell said. “Tonight, the reason we lost was because we couldn’t throw strikes.”
Royals need to go 43-10 to finish .500, 25-28 to avoid 100 losses, 1-52 to avoid losing all of their remaining games.
