The Royals, who will do a lot of losing in 2018, played not to lose on Friday afternoon. And shockingly, it came back to bite them in the ass.
Kansas City lost to Cleveland in the Indians’ home opener, 3-2, to drop the team to 1-4 on the season. It was a very winnable contest. Danny Duffy turned a bad day into a decent one. The offense had chances. But ultimately, none of it came to fruition.
I want to talk about how freaking stupid bunting Whit Merrifield in the sixth inning was, but I have to pace myself.
