Summary
The Royals pulled off a gritty 6-5 win over the Cardinals, their third straight victory and a crucial step toward tying the season series. Every starter contributed offensively, with standout hits from Jac Caglianone and Isaac Collins, including a clutch two-run double in the fourth. Seth Lugo returned from injury with a solid six-inning start, showing command and defense despite no strikeouts. The bullpen stumbled late — Matt Strahm gave up three runs in the ninth — forcing Alex Lange to close, but the team still held on. With a chance to sweep the series today, the Royals are building momentum, even if playoff dreams remain distant. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
