For the first time since Opening Week, the Royals offense came alive. Scoring seven runs in the first four innings, it looked as though they would cruise to a win. Instead, Kansas City had to fend off a late Blue Jays rally that saw the go-ahead run come to the plate in the 9th inning in a 7-5 win Thursday night.
In fact, it saw the go-ahead run come to the plate in the form of Vladimir Guerrero Jr, but that is neither here nor there.
The Royals entered the contest having scored just 24 runs in their past eight games after opening the season with 25 runs in their first two games.
