Baez Hits 2 home runs in Royals Win
|
Joshua Baez drove in all 5 runs for the Kansas City Royals, helping them knock off the St. Louis Cardinals, 5-4. DL Hall, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 23rd save. At 57-62, the Royals find themselves in third place in the American League Central Division.
Baez had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a 3-1 slider from Dylan Lee, he banged a 2-run home run to left, giving the Royals a 5-4 lead. It was the 8th home run of the year for Baez.
"It's nice to come out on top today," said Baez.
