KC Royals: Could Running Game Boost Struggling Offense?

It has been a testament to the pitching and team defense that despite an anemic offense, the Kansas City Royals find themselves three games over .500. In fact, the KC Royals are ranked 8th overall in team ERA at 3.47, and are currently ranked 3rd in defensive runs saved at 10.7.

However, the lack of scoring isn’t doesn’t appear to be because the Kansas City Royals aren’t putting the ball in play.

While not stellar, according to fangraphs.com the KC Royals rank tenth in team batting average at .258, which is exactly the same as the Tigers team batting average.
