The Kansas City Royals beat the Minnesota Twins tonight at Kauffman Stadium 8-1. The Royals scored five runs in the fourth inning and three runs in the ninth inning to bury the Twins, who were held to only a single run behind fantastic performances from Dillon Gee and Chris Young and, yes, that is a completely satire-free statement.
Twins starter Tyler Duffey has been very bad this year. The Royals this year have made very bad pitchers look very good. Indeed, it seemed to be that way again.
