KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Whether it’s nerves or excitement or anxiousness, Kansas City Royals pitcher Jonathan Heasley has had stomach trouble and pitched before, it just hadn’t been so public.

Tuesday night, Heasley’s internal upheaval struck in the middle of the game on the field with all eyes on him as he faced the Arizona Diamondbacks in front of an announced 12,427 at Kauffman Stadium.
