Astros Suffer 13-2 Drubbing
|
Kansas City first baseman Branden Warner made his presence felt in the 13-2 Royals triumph over the Houston Astros. Warner hit 3 home runs. He drove in 4 runs and scored three times. Eric Unruh got the win, improving to 3-6. He held the Astros to 1 run on 3 hits over 8 innings, while striking out 7 and walking 2. With this game in the books, Kansas City is 62-56, Houston 55-63.
Kansas City relied on the hitting of Mike Flacco to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Royals on top, 8-1. For the game, Flacco had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"We didn't put up much resistance," said losing manager Chris Cunningham.
