BALTIMORE — After three days off, the Kansas City Royals offense didn’t light the world on fire. But it sure was opportunistic as the Royals turned three errors by the Baltimore Orioles into three unearned runs — more than enough to swing the outcome of Sunday’s first game.
Nicky Lopez reached on an error with two outs in the ninth inning and that sparked a two-run inning that broke a tie and lifted the Royals to victory over the Orioles, 6-4, in the first game of a doubleheader at Oriole Park at Camden Yards on Sunday afternoon.
The teams had their previously scheduled games on Friday and Saturday washed out by rain.
