The Royals' bats broke out in a big way, setting a franchise record in the 11-6 win over the Orioles.

 

Kansas City hit seven home runs in the victory, breaking the previous record for home runs in a game, with six back in 2020 in a win over the Tigers.

 

Maikel Garcia hit two home runs, while Bobby Witt Jr, Vinnie Pasquantino, Jonathan India, Michael Massey, and Luke Maile also left the yard at Camden Yards. Manager Matt Quatraro says it was a rare slugfest for the club.

 

After a very slow start to the season offensively, the Royals have the second best team batting average in baseball over the past two weeks. Quatraro says he credits it to the guys staying patient.

 

Kansas City is 19-16 on the season, and open a series with the Chicago White Sox tonight at Kauffman Stadium, with coverage beginning at 6 p.m. CT on the Mighty 690.
