Welcome to The Salvy Show In a back and forth affair decided by a couple of defensive miscues and some quality base running, it was Salvador Perez who stole the show. Again.
Play deep! There's a league-wide movement to position defenders deeper across the spectrum. Do the Royals follow the trends? And how does it impact keeping runners off the bases?
Royals sweep away the Pirates The offense continues to roll along and the bullpen turned in another stellar performance to secure the victory and a two-game sweep. Baseball is fun again!
Dingers and hamstrings: The dichotomy of a victory The Royals open their homestand with a victory. Adalberto Mondesi puts one into orbit but leaves late with an apparent hamstring issue. Plus, some awards for the end of the month.
Derailed in the dome Singer gets roughed up, the bats remain largely silent and the Royals stumble to another blowout loss.
Who will throw the next no-hitter for the Royals? It's been almost 30 years since the last Royals' no-no. In the year of the no-hitter, we have a ranking of the most likely candidates. Also, another pitcher's duel breaks out under the roof in Tampa.
Many happy returns Mondesi returns to the Royals lineup and Keller throws his best start of the season. We only had to wait eight weeks!
