On the mound for the Royals. His third start is coming back from AAA. It's right. Alec Marsh, you mentioned only his third start since coming back from AAA. He's thrown relatively decent. He had to start earlier this year against Minnesota with seven innings pitched into left field that will land in front of MJ Melendez. Eddie julian takes off the night with an opposite field single at a lengthy at bat. And the twins have the leadoff man aboard here in the opening inning, Trevor nick. First round pick out of Oregon State in 2018 to the right side. Michael Massey will take you out at first base as Julian advances down to second comes Jose Mirando and a good ball and there are two down and brings up Roner matt hitting 262 got hit on his leg, no swing and there will be runners on at 1st and 2nd for Royce Lewis. Lewis could not hold back and strikes him out with a breaking ball. Lewis down on strikes and the twins to one of the veterans goes here tonight and Bailey Ober who said, had a great season, but when he sees Kansas city boy, the Royals have his number. Yeah, he's really been Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde and there's strike three on a breaking ball. That fan thought was Lowe. So one down with Bobby Jr coming up this one out to right center and a play for Matt Walner and there are two now and now over will face Salvador Perez, the captain on his bobblehead night that hit him and Perez not happy dropping the gear steering out towards the mound. So the Royals get a runner with two out and the batter's MJ Melendez, that's a fair ball played by Santana. And the inning is over. Young is out number one and now Michael Massey change up in the dirt picked up by Jeffers, had to complete the play and there are two down for digs in now good young hitter as he grounds one back to so a quick 123 2nd for Ober back in the top of the lineup and Edward Julian got the lone hit of tonight's ball game. He led off the game with a single julian to right this one down the line. That's a fair ball that's going to find the corner and he will make second base with a one out double here in the Minnesota third. So Julian back in the leadoff spot for the first time in a while is two for two tonight. Brings up Trevor nick over the inner edge called strike three, a fastball at 94 froze nick two outs now in the top of the third and here's jose Miranda to right near the line that will land fair and scoop by Tommy Pham and find the wall. Julian will score Miranda's rounding second on his way to third and Miranda is in safely with an RB I triple and Minnesota takes a 10 lead. Miranda hitting over 320 his last six games, a two out hit drives in julian, the twins strike first, a nice driving that pitch the other way, Tommy Pham, the route wasn't ideal. I think he thought he had a shot at it plays it into a triple watch. Miranda. He's hustling all the way. Now he's thinking, man, I wish tommy would have grabbed that. I got to go all the way to third Walner. Now the hitter to right and that's a base hit. Miranda will score Walner. He's on his way to second base and he is in standing back to back run, producing extra base hits first Miranda. Now Walner and the twins have a two nothing lead ball just kind of left out over the plate just spinning Walner does a nice job. Now, if you go back to that play , that was unable to make where there should have been just a runner on first base that may come back to get the Royals because this run would not have scored twins doing a nice job of getting an early start and so now another runner in scoring position for the twins with Royce Lewis at the plate. Lewis pops it up to shallow center. Kyle Isbell will make the play to end the inning with 20 twins as the Royals will bat at the home third Robbie Grossman a one time twin one up right side. Juliets the ball and his hat and is on with the first Kansas City hit and now Tommy Pham is coming up his second at bat shiny two tone bat for Tommy Pham and he swings and misses and down. He goes for the second time tonight. Third strikeout for Bailey Ober and here's Bobby Wood Junior to left field, a playable for Trevor nick and he'll make the catch and the inning is over, Daniel Lynch. Now pitching Lynch is on in relief of Alec Marsh posted good numbers at AAA this year and strikes out Lewis on a change up. So Lewis now zero for three tonight and zero for his last 12 brings up brooks Lee switch hitter now batting right handed two up, two down for Lynch Short and Bobby Witt Junior throws out Lee and Daniel Lynch, the fourth retires the twins in order in the top of the sixth. Bailey Ober has retired nine straight Royals batters as he is out to begin the Kansas City sixth that his hitters 91 and two for the Royals. And Kyle Isbell leads off. Papa seen this often tonight and Eddie julian will make the play for out number one and Tommy Pham Digs in and over with that fastball comes back to strike out pham for the third time tonight. Fastball. That is just at 91 miles an hour. But Tommy Pham way behind that Bailey over so efficient this evening and Bobby Wood Jr the of the bases empty in two outs. This one tapped back to Ober sling it to first and make that 12 in a row retired. Brings up Kyle Farmer who's batting for the first time this evening towards the hole and passed it diving Bobby Wood jr and Farmer has 1/7 inning single with one out for Deshaun Ky jr. It's a fair ball and Perez will take the out at first base as Farmer advances down to second and Rocco Baldelli is calling on Willie Castro off the bench to pinch hit for Edward Julian got him on a slider. So Lynch another strikeout and that's 14 in a row retired by Bailey and Paul. The young will popped up to left and this will be playable for nick over near the line and Larn makes the play. Bailey over has been fantastic. 15 in a row retired. What a night that Bailey over was having but he's out of the game. Now, Joan Durant coming in now in the eighth inning and not the ninth. The go ahead run is now at the play and Kyle is to left center and a base hit for, had a hold. He'll now round third and he will head home. The twins don't even throw and this is a one run game. Kyle Isbell to left center scores, freddie Fermin Blanco to second. Great at bat by. Is that ball leaks out over the plate? He's fired up shoots that thing in the left field. But interesting, the twins defense right here, they're not even considering going home. They're just worried about keeping the guy off the third and Rocco Baldelli went to Durant. Baldelli is going to bring in Griffin Jacks. I'll tell you the consideration for the eighth. Should have been Bailey over two on one out, one run game. Jack's coming in to face Pham Tw. This will be a tough play. Lee will bare hand throws, gets by farmer's heading home. He will score is Bell will stop at third base. That's a 22 game fan made contact. Lee decided the throw, farmer could not stop it and the Royals have answer with two and have the go ahead brawn 90 ft away with only one out. So take out your pitcher who has given up one hit, no runs in seven innings and watch everything on Raval. So now Bobby Witt junior lined to center field that will land a base hit. Isbell scores Royals take the lead 3 to 2 here in the eighth. The most outstanding player in the game gets a pitch that's out of the zone but good enough to stay with it. Bat falls through, he flips it out to center field RB. I puts the Royals ahead. Bobby Witt comes through. How do you think right now? I bet he could sum it up in a few choice words, truly baffling with two outs and now it's Andre Melendez right side base hit right center Tommy Pham around third. He will score. Whit will stop at third base and now he's coming home the throw to catch the tag and wit is out to end the inning but Tommy Pham scores at an MJ Melendez two out single. It's 42 Royals and the twins are one out away from an absolute gut punch of the loss here in Kansas City. He went and the Royals rally and have won the first two games in this pivotal weekend series.
