Royals’ offense disappears again in 2-0 loss to the Nationals

The reprieve lasted just 24 hours, one day of scoring before the Royals’ offense turned back to nothing on Monday night at Kauffman Stadium.

For the third time in four nights, the Royals were shut out, this time in a 2-0 loss to the Washington Nationals in the first game of a three-game home stand. The team was back at home, the stadium more familiar, but the template looked the same as it did on Friday and Saturday night in Seattle.

Up and down the lineup, the Royals’ core is struggling. As of Monday night, only Seattle and Tampa Bay had scored fewer runs in the American League.
