It was looking like a good day for the Brewers. Christian Yelich returned from the DL, and Brandon Woodruff was on the mound. Unfortunately, it wasn’t enough to keep a good offensive performance from Sunday going for the second straight game.
For most of this game, this was a pitchers’ duel. Both pitching staffs did not allow a run through the first seven innings. Woodruff only allowed four hits and a walk through the first seven innings. Meanwhile, Royals starter Kris Bubic allowed just two walks and a hit through his six innings of work. Scott Barlow took the seventh and had a clean inning.
