Kings Come Back Late to Clip Royale with Cheese
|
The Kalamazoo Royale with Cheese got a superb performance from designated hitter Donovan Bird. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Kansas City. The Kings won the game, 6-5. In spite of the loss, Bird was named the player of the game. He went 2-4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice. Kansas City reliever Ignacio Colón picked up the win, bumping his record to 4-4. Rikiya Sakurai was collared with the loss. Kansas City has now won 3 straight, while the Royale with Cheese have lost 3 in a row.
Had it not been for Luis González, the results might have been different. In the top of the ninth inning, when the Kings were trailing 5-4, González hit a 2-run home run for Kansas City, giving his team the lead.
"It wasn't our best performance," said González, "but a win in this league is nothing to sniff at."
