The Kansas City Royals had a great showing against the Minnesota Twins tonight. The win was only overshadowed by the performance of Jorge Lopez. Lopez was three outs away from a Perfect Game. After walking the first batter of the ninth inning, Lopez also surrendered a hit before recording any outs in the ninth.
The Kansas City Royals have not recorded a Perfect Game in franchise history, and there have only been 24 in MLB history. Lopez would have joined an elite list of names, if he were to achieve the feat, and he would have been the first ever for the Royals.
