Drooping Royals Lose 6th Straight
|
Toronto pitcher Pablo Lopez did his part in helping his team defeat the Kansas City Royals, 4-2. The opposition could never get too much going against the right-hander. Toronto reliever Peter Strzelecki picked up the win, upping his record to 3-1. Ryan Helsley was saddled with the loss. The Royals fall to 12-19 and continue their lackluster start in 2024.
Toronto got a clutch hit from Will Benson. The right fielder launched a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a kill shot.
"Winning the game is always the first objective," Benson said.
