MINNEAPOLIS -- Royals left-hander Danny Duffy was back on his "A" game Monday night.
After getting roughed up for six runs over six innings in his last outing, Duffy came back and fired six scoreless innings against the Twins, continuing his personal upsurge that started in late May.
Yet it wasn't enough, as the Royals' bullpen gave up two runs in the seventh and the Twins held on for a 3-1 victory at Target Field. The Royals now have lost 10 straight and 28 of 32.
