Los Angeles Angels pitcher Johnny Cueto was wearing a different uniform when he took the mound at Kauffman Stadium on Wednesday night, but Kansas City Royals fans still felt the same about him.
It was all love for the 2015 World Series champion, who pitched 6 1/3 innings and allowed three runs while taking the loss in his first big-league outing of the 2024 season. As Cueto, who was pulled from the game with a runner on first in the bottom of the seventh inning, walked off the mound, Royals fans showered him with a standing ovation in a classy moment.
