Entering the bottom of the ninth in their game against the Mariners Monday night, the Royals had already weathered a strange series opener.
Kansas City got 6 2/3 no-hit innings from pitcher Brady Singer, his third career no-hit bid of five innings or more, only to watch Seattle explode for six runs in the eighth and ninth. Meanwhile, Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. hit a controversial inside-the-park home run—his 22nd homer of the season.
