In the seventh inning of Saturday's Game 1 of the ALDS between the Royals and Yankees, the game stood tied 5-5 with Jazz Chisholm at first base and no outs. Reliever Michael Lorenzen stuck out Anthony Volpe on a sweeper, and with Chisholm running on the pitch, the Royals had a chance for a double play. Salvador Perez has long been one of the best catchers in baseball at throwing out runners, but on this attempt, his throw was a bit high. Second baseman Michael Massey, to his credit, speared the throw and quickly tagged Chisholm, who was ruled safe.
The Royals were hosed in Game 1. How will they respond?
