Aaron Civale breezed through the first three innings against the Royals. One-two-three on 11 pitches in all three frames, Civale looked like he had the cruise control on. The bats for KC finally started making him earn it in the fourth, though he worked around the Bobby Witt hustle double, it did take him 22 pitches. Unfortunately, that inning was probably the best of the evening for an ineffectual Royals offense. Since the Dodgers series, the Royals have lost five in a row scoring just 1.6 runs per game. Seven of the eight runs in that stretch were in the first two games.
Another night, another L, but always blue
