Witt Jr. Hits 2 home runs in Royals Win
|
With shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. leading the charge, the Kansas City Royals defeated the Detroit Tigers, 9-3, at Comerica Park. Witt Jr., who is rated as the 13th best prospect by BNN, was 2 for 3 with 2 home runs and a walk, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Austin Cox, who went 6 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 3 runs on 9 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 3. His record now stands at 1-0. Carlos Hernandez collected save number 1.
Kansas City catcher MJ Melendez had a key at-bat for the Royals in the top of the sixth inning. Facing right-hander Paul Richan, Melendez hit a run-scoring double. It put Kansas City in front, 3-2. For the day, Melendez was 1 for 4 with a double.
"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Melendez.
Detroit falls to 1-4.
