Royals ride two dongs and a walk-off bunt single/error to win in 10

With the dong-prone but recently rolling Jakob Junis and the mercurial Lucas Giolito facing pretty bad offenses, the makings of a mediocre game were there from Jump Street.

Somewhat surprisingly, the game actually ended up being about as exciting as a game without meaning between teams a combined 79 games under .500 can be.

After a scoreless top of the first, Whit Merrifield sent Lucas Giolito’s first pitch of the night screaming into the night, stroking a dong 406 feet to left center to put the Royals up 1-0 immediately.
