Ever had a good Reuben? Swiss cheese, Thousand Island dressing, sauerkraut? The Royals made a nice Reuben sandwich out of the Minnesota Twins visit to Kansas City. Sandwiching pickled meat (Sat’s 7-0 shutout) between 2 slices of rye bread. (Fri and Sun’s 4-3 comeback wins.)
Let’s savor Sunday’s comeback win:
Mike Moustakas smashed a home run to right center (423 feet) and halved the Twins lead, 2-1 in the 6th. It seemed as if the Royals had the Twins right where they wanted them.
Going into the bottom of the 9th the Twins bullpen ace and closer Glen Perkins took the mound and got Moose to fly out to left field for the first out.
