Coming off their four-game sweep of the Chicago White Sox, the Royals walked-off the Astros on Tuesday night 4-3. It moves Kansas City’s record to 7-4 on the season.
Things didn’t get off to a great start for Cole Ragans, who was making his third start of the year. Unlike his outing in Baltimore, Ragans’s opponent saw his fastball well. The first three hitters of the game reached, but the left-hander danced out of it — allowing just one run.
However, Ragans never really settled in. In total, he logged five innings and allowed three runs. Though three runs isn’t much, he dealt with baserunners all night.
