Dylan Bundy had a difficult time on the mound and an easy explanation for his horrid, record-setting performance.
“I was leaving pitches right down the middle and they were hitting them over the fence,” the right-hander said, matter-of-factly.
Bundy yielded four homers and left without getting an out, part of a 10-run first inning that propelled the Kansas City Royals past the hapless Baltimore Orioles 15-7 Tuesday night.
Bundy (1-5) was lifted after allowing five hits and two walks to the only seven batters he faced. That was more than enough damage to send the Orioles to their season-high seventh straight defeat and 19th in 22 games.
