MINNEAPOLIS -- This was the Adalberto Mondesi who Royals fans have been waiting to see.
Mondesi, likely the shortstop of the future, belted a three-run home run and added an RBI single in leading Kansas City to a 9-4 win over the Twins on Tuesday night at Target Field. The triumph snapped a 10-game losing streak.
The Royals had gone 30 straight games of scoring five runs or fewer.
Mondesi, who also had a stolen base, clubbed his home run in the second inning to deep right -- it projected to travel 400 feet, according to Statcast™.
