However, a leadoff walk in the third to Jac Caglianone started the scoring.
Nick Loftin would hit into a double play, but the Royals would successfully overturn the out call at first base. So, they still had a runner on first with one out. Kyle Isbel would strike out, but an infield single from Maikel Garcia and an RBI single from Bobby Witt Jr.
put the Royals up 1-0. It was the Royals first hit with a runner in scoring position this season, after being 0-10 in the first two contests. Bobby comes through with two outs for the first run of the ballgame!
