The Royals looked like they might win their game against the White Sox easily. They took a 6-3 lead into the ninth with Joakim Soria on the mound. With two out and no one on, the White Sox score four runs, the last two on a Carlos Quentin double, his second extra-base hit of the game. That puts the Royals up in the bottom of the ninth down 7-6. They get a chance to win their fifth straight game in their last at bat. They do have the heart of the order up.
Update: The Royals tie the game. They get a lot out of what should be two singles. Billy Butler singled with one out, and Jarrod Dyson ran for him. Dyson stole second, then Kila Ka’aihue dumps a slow line drive toward the leftfield line, scoring Dyson. Kila stretches the hit into a double to put himself in scoring position.
Update: That’s all the Royals get, and the game goes to extra innings. Fans are getting a lot of free baseball in KC the last few days.
