Carroll Helps Kansas City Cruise to 10-3 Win
Kansas City right fielder Corbin Carroll was instrumental in helping the Royals triumph, 10-3, over the Chicago Cubs. Carroll went 4-4 with 2 triples, a double, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. With the win, Kansas City upped its record to 63-44.

Rafael Devers had a big 2-run double for the Royals in the bottom of the seventh inning. With Kansas City leading 3-2 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a fastball from 25-year old right-handed pitcher Andres Muñoz and swatted a double to center. It was his 21st double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 5-2.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Carroll told the Kansas City Today. "It's as simple as that."
