The Royals spoiled the getaway game, winning 3-2 this afternoon with a clutch bit of small ball (sac bunt and sac fly) in the 8th inning. John Brebbia has been excellent this season but he was victimized by a leadoff double from Andrew Benintedi who scored on the fly out. Sam Long opened the game and with two on and two out in the 1st a grounder came up on Brandon Crawford and it went through letting both runners score. It was ruled an error. Long finished the frame and got six more outs. The bullpen did well after that but the lineup could not get anything going except in the 4th.
