DETROIT -- Royals designated hitter Mike Moustakas left no doubt about how he would extend his hitting streak to 11 games.
Moustakas launched his fifth home run of the season in the top of the sixth, pulling the Royals within one run of the Tigers on Friday at Comerica Park.
Moustakas jumped on a 1-1 changeup from Tigers right-hander Michael Fulmer, and he sent it into the right-field seats. The ball left Moustakas' bat with 106-mph exit velocity, per Statcast™, and it traveled a projected 407 feet.
