The Royals went unbeaten during a six-game homestand from May 27-June 1, sweeping three-game sets vs. the White Sox and Tampa Bay. It marked the first time the Royals have won every game of a homestand (min. six games) since June 2–8, 1988, when they went 7–0 vs. Seattle and Oakland.
The Royals’ perfect six-game homestand in 2016 featured some memorable moments:
- May 27 vs. CWS: The Royals overcame a 5–2 deficit entering the bottom of the seventh to win 7–5. The game saw Brett Eibner record his first Major League hit in his Major League debut as the starting DH, becoming the first Royal to make his MLB debut as a starting DH since Ken Harvey on Sept.
