Royals Roar Past Tigers with Explosive Seventh Inning

The Kansas City Royals improved their record to 32-19 with a decisive 8-3 victory over the Detroit Tigers, who now stand at 23-26. The game, held at Kauffman Stadium, saw the Royals dominate both offensively and defensively.

The Royals opened their scoring in the second inning with two hits that resulted in two runs. This early lead set the tone for Kansas City. By the end of the fourth inning, they had added another run to their tally, bringing it to 3-0.

Kansas City's offense continued its momentum into the fifth inning with three more hits and one additional run. However, it was in the seventh inning that they truly broke away from Detroit. The Royals managed four runs on three hits during this pivotal moment of the game.

On defense, Kansas City's pitching staff was formidable. Starter Cole Ragans delivered an outstanding performance over six innings without allowing any runs and striking out twelve batters. The bullpen faced some challenges but ultimately held strong despite giving up three earned runs across three innings.

Detroit's offense struggled against Ragans' dominant pitching early on but found some rhythm later in the game. They scored two runs in the seventh inning and added another run in the eighth thanks to a couple of timely hits by Spencer Torkelson and Javier Báez.

Despite these efforts from Detroit's hitters, Kansas City's defense remained solid throughout most of their innings played without committing any errors while recording twenty-seven putouts and five assists overall as a team effort led by John Schreiber who also contributed significantly towards securing this win for them today!
