And here we go! From Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City… the Orioles are on a mission! Kevin Johnson on the mound, absolute precision, seven innings of shutout ball… FOUR HITS, FOUR STRIKEOUTS, ZERO RUNS! That’s dominance, folks. The Royals? They couldn’t catch a break if it was gift-wrapped and handed to them on a silver platter!
And Baltimore’s bats are buzzing—Salvatore Valdez with a triple to start things off! J. Hyland with a clutch home run in the fifth! B. Hemphill, R. Reid, P. Huerta… everybody contributing! Four runs, nine hits, clean defense—no errors! The Orioles are rolling!
Kansas City could only muster six hits, couldn’t scratch a run across, and the pitching of Johnson just stifled them. The Royals are now facing a 2-0 hole in this best-of-five Division Series. If Baltimore keeps this up, it’s going to be a long trip back home for Kansas City.
Game 3 is set for Friday at Camden Yards in Baltimore, and you can bet the Orioles will be looking to put the Royals on ice. Kevin Johnson? Player of the Game, and frankly, if he keeps pitching like that, the Royals won’t know what hit them.
Orioles 4, Royals 0… clean, sharp, and a statement made. Gary Thorne here saying, Baltimore keeps rolling!
