KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Jorge Bonifacio and Jake Junis are auditioning for 2018 jobs.
Bonifacio hit a three-run homer with two outs in the sixth inning to help the Kansas City Royals to a 4-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks on Saturday night.
Bonifacio's homer, his 17th, came off Archie Bradley (3-3) with Paulo Orlando and Ramon Torres aboard.
"I was looking for a fastball," Bonifacio said. "He throws 97. I was just trying to put the ball in play."
He said he is unsure if he has established himself to be a starting outfielder for next year.
