Having into tonight’s game, the Kansas City Royals had won just two of their past ten games. September, which was seemingly destined to be a victory lap for the Royals before their run through October, has been a nightmare. They have needed something to bring back that swagger and spark their flagging confidence. Well, tonight, Kris Medlen and Alex Rios may have done just that, guiding the Royals to a 2-0 victory over the Cleveland Indians.
The Royals got on the board in the top of the second. Eric Hosmer singled to lead off the inning, but was erased on a double play.
