Stat of the Day: Royals Starting Rotation Leads the Majors

Nate Karns pitched 6.0 innings of one-hit ball on Saturday in Kansas City’s 3–2 win over the Angels. In doing so, he lowered the ERA of Kansas City’s starting rotation to 2.59 (19 ER in 66.0 IP), tops in the Majors ahead of Seattle (2.75), the Cubs (2.84) and Minnesota (2.97).

Kansas City pitching has held the Angels — who entered this series leading the American League in hits, total bases and batting average — to just three runs on 10 hits (no extra-base hits) in the series’ first two games.
