Royals suffer painful loss as comeback falls short after Quatraro tossed.

Bobby Witt started the game by banging a double off of the right field wall and scoring on a Salvador Perez sac fly. The good feelings then lasted all the way until Jordan Lyles threw his first pitch of the game and Max Kepler took it deep. This was not your typical 2023 Royals game however, as the Royals nearly (should have?) pulled it out.

The Twins scored 1 in the first, 2 in the second, and 4 in the fourth before Lyles was pulled in favor of Josh Taylor who also gave up a home run to the first batter he faced, Jose Miranda.
