The Royals came from behind to take a lead, but a bullpen blow up cost them, snapping a seven-game win streak with a 9-6 loss to the Phillies Saturday night.
Like Friday night, the Phillies got on the board in the first inning. Alec Marsh walked Kyle Schwarber to lead off the inning, and Alec Bohm deposited a hanging slider into the left field stands for a two-run home run. But the Royals got a run back the next inning when Freddy Fermin homered off Phillies starter Cristopher Sánchez to make it 2-1.
Another leadoff walk in the third would come around to bite Marsh.
