Sunday Roller Coaster: Royals 8, Rockies 7

I have to type this fast, because I had a full “ROYALS BLOW BIG LEAD AND LOSE” article ready and now they rallied and won and I have to throw something together in a hurry.

Sunday was a roller coaster of a game for the Royals. They went from up 6-0 to down 7-6 before rallying in the ninth and winning, 8-7, thanks to Salvador Perez coming through with a clutch two-run single.

The 6-0 lead was built with home runs from Emmanuel Rivera (1st), Whit Merrifield (2nd), and Bobby Witt Jr. (3rd). Hunter Dozier continued his nice series with a couple more hits.
