Cole Ragans pulled early as Royals drop series opener to Cardinals 10-3

There was some stuff in this game that you don’t see very often, but the real crux of this game came down to only two things, both in the sixth inning.

Masyn Winn hit a comebacker to lead off the inning, and Cole Ragans had an awkward hop on his plant leg as he looked to avoid the ball. He came down a little gingerly and paced around the mound. Whatever it was, the Royals coaching staff saw enough to remove him from the game immediately. Officially, he left the game with left groin tightness. We’ll see if it leads to an IL stint.
