CRYSTAL BALL
Yost apparently has the ability to predict the future. The manager, speaking to reporters before the game, said, “Morales has been hitting rockets lately, but he doesn’t have anything to show for it because he’s hitting them straight at guys. I’m not concerned about him at all. That’ll turn around and he’ll start getting hits soon.”
TRAINER’S ROOM
Royals: Moustakas will be examined by Dr. Thomas Graham, a hand specialist based in Cleveland while the Royals are in town.
Indians: OF Michael Brantley, who had offseason surgery on his right shoulder, was out of Saturday’s lineup after starting the last four games.
