The Kansas City Royals put together some good rallies tonight but, much to my chagrin, couldn’t sustain any of them or come up with a big hit as they fell 3-2 to the Seattle Mariners tonight at T-Mobile Park.
The Royals jumped on Logan Gilbert early. After a hard 6-3 by Jonathan India, Bobby Witt Jr. ripped an opposite field single. He promptly swiped second against the slow-to-the-plate Gilbert, but that was rendered moot after Vinnie Pasquantino battled back from 0-2 to draw a walk. Maikel Garcia popped up, but Salvador Perez came through by ripping a high fastball off the wall in left field for a double long single that scored Witt.
