Royals relievers ruin Ragans’s ruby, rupture 4-3

In a game delayed over five hours by rain, the Kansas City Royals led for most of the game before collapsing in the eighth and ninth innings as the Baltimore Orioles rallied for a 4-3 walk-off victory.

The Royals wasted little time in getting the party started. After Maikel Garcia went down on strikes, Bobby Witt Jr. roped a double and soon advanced to third on a wild pitch. Vinnie Pasquantino worked the count 3-2 before hitting one right back to Burnes. Witt ran on the play and was caught in a pickle, but he managed to stay in the rundown long enough for Pasquantino to get to third base.
