Kansas City Royals pitcher Brady Singer has been one of the brightest spots of one of MLB's worst teams this season. Tonight, he will look to continue an impressive recent stretch in his home state as he and the Royals continue their series with Shane McClanahan and the Tampa Bay Rays.
After succumbing to a walk-off grand slam at Yankee Stadium on Wednesday night, the Rays had to jet home and face a quick turnaround for last night's series opener against the Royals.
But they navigated the disappointment and lack of rest just fine, with a five-run seventh inning keying a 7-1 win.
Tha t win helped them keep pace with the Toronto Blue Jays for second in the AL East, and they remained locked into an AL wild-card spot along with the Blue Jays and Seattle Mariners.
