The win today makes it five in a row for the Kansas City Royals. The power was on display for the second game in a row. It also marked twice in three days that the team won in walk-off fashion. The final in the series finale was 5-4.
Whit Merrifield took home player of the day honors. Why not? When you hang dong not once, but twice there’s a good chance you played at least a little better than everyone else. Whit knocked solo homeruns in the fourth and eighth innings bringing his season total to 10.
