SEATTLE -- The long road back to the big leagues reached another milestone for Royals reliever Ryan Madson: He got his first win since Sept. 7, 2011, as the Royals beat the Mariners, 8-2, on Wednesday night.
"It felt good but I really think Danny [Duffy] deserved it, not me," Madson said. "He's the one who worked hard and gave us a good start. He earned it."
SEATTLE -- Royals center fielder Lorenzo Cain was out of the lineup on Wednesday because of a hamstring injury.
