What the KC Royals couldn’t quite do against Houston last week, they did in Chicago Sunday afternoon. Kansas City coasted to an easy 9-1 victory to secure a three-game sweep of the Cubs and a bit of solace for just missing a similar result against the Astros.
The win was the Royals’ sixth in their last seven games, with the only loss coming Thursday against the Astros when a win would have completed an impressive sweep of a four-game series with the American League West division leaders.
But there was no denying the Royals at Wrigley Field Sunday.
