A Tough Battle Ends in Heartache

Our boys in blue started strong, with Cavan Biggio knocking a double to center field in the first inning that drove Jonathan India home, putting us on the board first. The excitement was palpable, and it looked like we were set for a thrilling victory as we enjoyed the early lead.
Solid Pitching and Stellar Defense
Our pitching staff and fielders displayed great composure, maintaining their positions and holding the Twins to just one run through the first eight innings. Carlos Correa's solo home run in the second inning was a hiccup, but the team showed resilience dealing with the Twins' offense. From Freddy Fermin's key double in the second inning to Michael Massey's solid singles, it felt like we might be able to maintain our edge.

Correa managed an infield single, followed by Ty France's devastating two-run homer to left-center, sealing the game 3-1 in favor of the Twins. It was a punch to the gut after witnessing such an intense and competitive game.We may have lost this one, but we Royals fans know that the team's spirit and determination are unbreakable.
