New city, same offense as in Texas. The Royals are hitting DINGERS NOW BABY!
Bobby Witt Jr took some ill-advised swings at up-and-inside pitches to start off his game in the first inning, but he was gifted a middle-middle curveball that he blasted beyond the left field fence to score the first run of the game.
The Royals continued hitting dingers in the fifth inning. Freddy Fermin and Nick Loftin walked to lead off the inning, and Jonathan India absolutely massacred a 95mph fastball for a three-run homer. Man, homers are nice. Instant runs, you know? Maikel Garcia continued his torrid pace with a double right after, but Vinnie Pasquantino had a ground out up the middle to end the inning.
