CLEVELAND -- Seven batters and 26 pitches into the game, Royals left-hander Danny Duffy's night was finished because of an injured left shoulder.
The night didn't get any better as the Indians snapped Kansas City's six-game winning streak with a 9-3 victory Tuesday at Progressive Field.
Duffy came out because of what was described as impingement/tightness -- the same injury that placed him on the 10-day disabled list last month.
The Royals also lost right fielder Brett Phillips, who suffered a contusion on his right shoulder while crashing into the wall trying to snare a double off the bat of Jose Ramirez.
