Ninth inning rally falls short, Royals lose 5-4 in Toronto

The Royals scored a run in the ninth, but fell just short of tying it as they left two runners on in the ninth in a 5-4 loss to the Blue Jays Friday night.

Collin Snider was the opener for the Royals and pitched well with two scoreless innings and just one walk with three strikeouts. Dairon Blanco put the Royals on the board with a solo home run in the third inning off Blue Jays starter Yusei Kikuchi, his second of the year.
