Bottom 2nd: Royals 3, Tigers 0
Shane Greene issued a leadoff walk to Kendrys Morales and another to Alex Gordon before getting Salvador Perez to pop out for the first out of the inning. Omar Infante flew out to left field before Jarrod Dyson singled to left field. Justin Upton had Morales nailed at the plate, but the ball took a hop and got by Jarrod Saltalamacchia to score the run.
It wasn't a short hop to the plate. That's a play Saltalamacchia has to make.
Alcides Escobar added to the Tigers' misery, singling to left field to score both runners and push the score to 3-0.
