In a classic Thursday 12:10 game, the Royals took on the Rays in game three of their series looking for a sweep. Kansas City came into the game having won eight of their last nine and finished the month of May one game above .500. Kansas City remained hot, getting the win and the sweep with a big day for the offense putting up eight runs and 15 hits before heading to Baltimore.
Seth Lugo took the mound for the Royals coming off his best start of the year where he went eight scoreless innings against the Astros.
