Kansas City Royals: Sam McWilliams makes Spring Training debut

There was a lot of anticipation for Sam McWilliams to throw in a Kansas City Royals uniform, and now he has. With his first outing out of the way it will be interesting to watch where he goes from here.

Not only did McWilliams make his debut, but for whatever it is worth he was the starting pitcher. He threw a scoreless first inning, giving up a single to Marcus Semien and striking Jurickson Profar. Things began to unravel as he strolled out there for second inning.

It started with McWilliams hitting Stephen Piscotty, who was then thrown out on the next play.
