That moved Soria to within three innings of the club record for consecutive scoreless innings by a reliever, held by Rusty Meacham at 22 1/3 in 1994. The overall club record for scoreless innings is 33 by Kevin Appier in 1993.
Soria could soon reclaim the closer’s role. The Royals are sifting trade offers for Octavio Dotel, a pending free agent, and seem likely to make a deal before the July 31 non-waiver trading deadline.
