SEATTLE MARINERS AT KANSAS CITY ROYALS
GAME ID: 691 - SATURDAY, APRIL 4TH, 2020 - GAME LOG
  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Seattle Mariners (4-5) 2 0 2 0 1 0 1 0 0 6 11 1
Kansas City Royals (3-4) 1 0 0 2 3 0 1 0 X 7 13 2
Royals Clip Mariners, 7-6
No one was more impactful than Jorge Soler in the 7-6 Kansas City win over Seattle. Soler, who finished 2nd in the AL in RBI with 117 last year, was 2 for 5 with 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Kansas City pitcher Trevor Rosenthal got the win, upping his record to 1-1. Blake Wood got the loss. Ian Kennedy earned save number 3 this season.

Had Nicky Lopez not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Lopez hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 7-6, in favor of the Royals.

"It was offense that won us the game," said winning manager Andy McCullough.

The loss drops the Mariners to 4-5.
