    'Prepared' Royals look for series win vs. Angels

    Chances are outfielder Dairon Blanco will not be in the starting lineup for the Kansas City Royals as they close a four-game series on Sunday afternoon against the Los Angeles Angels in Anaheim, Calif. But that doesn't mean Blanco won't have an impact on the game. Blanco has started just eight of the Royals' 41 games this season, but he has played in 26 games, providing a late-inning luxury for manager Matt Quatraro. Blanco's speed makes him a threat on the base paths and a solid defensive outfielder in any of the three outfield spots. Blanco went 3-for-3 with a homer, double, bunt single, two stolen bases and four runs scored in the Royals' 10-4 victory.

    Royals Rout Angels 10-4 in First Game of Road Series

    The Kansas City Royals took down the Los Angeles Angels 10-4 on Thursday night. This victory gives Kansas City the first of four games of this current series on the road, and they truly outplayed Los Angeles in all three phases. The Royals' bats were frozen in the first couple of innings as Hunter Renfroe became the first member of the ball club to reach first base as he was walked. From there, Garrett Hampson and Maikel Garcia proceeded with singles of their own, but Hampson was caught stealing home.
