Royals 16, Tigers 5: Pitching is hard

It was Baseball Night in America and the Tigers got the nationally televised treatment, complete with two random old men saying nonsense to one another that was occasionally related to the game on the field. These two were to announcing what Delmon Young was to left field. Fortunately, the Tigers came out swinging and two singles from Ian Kinsler and Cameron Maybin put runners at the corners with no outs. A Miguel Cabrera fly out drove in the first run. Maybin advanced to third on an errant throw, and Castellanos reach base when "he" was struck by a pitch (the pitch hit his bat knob).
