Coming off their series win over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday, the Kansas City Royals blanked the Angels 7-0. It marked Kansas City’s 22nd win in its last 42 games.
For the 16th time season, Zack Greinke toed the slab. Despite his season numbers, the 38-year-old right-hander had shined at Kauffman Stadium in 2022. Coming into the night, Greinke had allowed just eight runs in seven starts at home. His success continued on the bump Monday night, as he shut down eight of the first nine Angels hitters.
Unfortunately, Noah Syndergaard was just as good on the other side.
