Yordano Ventura struggled through four lengthly innings before leaving hurt, and once again, the Royals offense was unable to do much of anything - until it mattered most.
And boy, did they break out in a big way.
The end result was a 7-4 win for the Kansas City Royals, stunning the Detroit Tigers and Francisco Rodriguez with an explosion in the ninth inning. Trailing 4-2 and down to their final out, Kansas City put together a stunning, five-run ninth frame that left Tigers fans headed for the exits before the conclusion of a once-inevitable Detroit win.
