Today, the Royals took a heartbreaking loss in a battle with the New York Yankees that came down to the wire but ended up resulting in a brutal 1-0 loss. The Royals had opportunities to score and cost runners on base, and allowed a run on a brutal series of events in the eighth inning. Kansas City heads into a home series with the Athletics with hopes to win the series and get back to .500 before leaving Kansas City.
In a game that could not possibly be more different than the first two games this season, as no runs were scored in the first seven innings.
