The Royals just cannot buy a run. There’s not much more to say. It cost them the final two games of their latest home stand against the Angels, but the pitching staff wasn’t tremendous either, giving up 10 runs across those games.
Tonight, however, a third consecutive shutout came at the cost of one of the best career starts from Royals starter Brady Singer, who despite tossing seven shutout innings, left with a no decision. Two innings later, Aaron Judge walked it off with a homer to center, ending a 1-0 pitcher’s duel.
Both offenses struggled throughout , with both starters looking especially sharp.
