Who has the longest scoreless innings streak in MLB? That’s right, it is Michael Lorenzen. The All-Star right-hander three-hit the Royals over seven innings of scoreless work, and the offense got just enough down to take the four-game set in Kansas City on Thursday.
This one started pretty quietly. A one-out single from Riley Greene in the top of the first was followed by a double play ball from Spencer Torkelson, while Michael Lorenzen had a snappy 1-2-3 frame in the bottom half.
The back half of the order put together some good two-out ABs against Zack Greinke in the top of the second.
