The Royals only won 58 games this year, so we really have to cherish each victory. But some wins stood out better than others. Let’s continue our review of the season by looking at the best games of the year.
March 28 - Opening Day against the White Sox
For one day, the Royals were in first place! Everything went right on Opening Day. Brad Keller was outstanding, tossing seven shutout innings, allowing just two hits and showing his rookie season was no fluke. Adalberto Mondesi showed how speed could be an asset, hitting a triple in the fourth, and scoring on an Alex Gordon sacrifice fly, one of his two triples on the day.
