Clemens Slugs Royals to 8-1 Win
|
Kansas City and Toronto got after it at Rogers Centre.
In the 8-1 Kansas City win over Toronto, the impact of Kody Clemens was substantial. Clemens belted 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice. Kris Bubic picked up the win with 6 innings of work. He allowed no runs on 2 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 8. On the season, he is now 15-8.
With Kansas City leading 4-0 in the top of the seventh, Clemens came up to bat against Toronto pitcher Vinnie Pestano. Clemens hit a fastball to center for a 3-run home run. His 16th home run of the season put the Royals on top, 7-0.
"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Kansas City manager David Eckstein.
With the win, the Royals have a record of 72-72.
