Rutschman, Royals Too Much for Diamondbacks
|
Adley Rutschman impressed in the 11-5 Kansas City win over Arizona. Rutschman, who finished 4th in the AL in on-base percentage with .398 in 2024, was 4 for 4 with 2 doubles, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 runs and drove in 4. Ryan Pressly collected his 5th save. With the win, Kansas City upped its record to 60-60.
The Royals got an important contribution from designated hitter Connor Joe, who in the bottom of the third punched a 0-1 fastball into right for a grand slam home run. It was his 6th home run of the season and put the Royals ahead, 6-0.
"Nice to tuck this win away," said Rutschman.
