Royals Raise Rally Flag, Beat Atlanta, 8-6
|
Jackson Merrill did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Atlanta Braves from being beaten, 8-6, to the Kansas City Royals at Truist Park. Merrill went 2-4 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Kansas City reliever Derek Law picked up the win to move to 3-3. Sean Hjelle suffered the loss. Kansas City has 3 straight wins, Atlanta 3 straight losses.
Kansas City used a timely hit from Juan Brito to get the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Royals ahead, 8-6. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.
"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Brito.
