Royals Paste 7-0 Loss on Tigers
Detroit had no answer for Kansas City Royals starter Mitch Bratt, who flummoxed Tigers hitters as the Royals cruised to victory, 7-0. Bratt picked up the win for Kansas City, going 5 innings. He gave up no runs on 2 hits. He now sports a record of 1-1. Carlos Hinestroza recorded his 2nd save for Kansas City.

Kansas City second baseman Jose Devers contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fourth. With two down, he hit a curveball to right field for a run-scoring single. It was his 9th hit of the season and put the Royals ahead, 3-0.

"This game will punch you right in the mouth," said Bratt. "My job is to show up and give my team a chance."

The Tigers, 7-13, continue their sluggish start to the 2028 campaign.
