Mike Moustakas homered in his first at-bat on Tuesday against the Reds at Goodyear Ballpark. (AP)Left-hander Travis Wood, fighting for the No. 5 spot in the Royals' rotation with Young and Nathan Karns, went 2 2/3 innings, giving up four hits and two runs.
Young pitched three innings and yielded three earned runs, three hits and one walk to go with five strikeouts.
Mike Moustakas, back at DH after playing his first Cactus League game at third base on Monday, hit his first spring homer in his first at-bat. And outfielder Billy Burns homered as well, his first since Sept. 25, 2015, when he was with the A's.
