Great start to the Royals' week.
As already said, the Tigers lost tonight.
The Cards are in this weekend and are playing 13 straight games without a day off. We have two days off before they arrive; they have none this week.
To top it off, they lost in 14 innings tonight. Every position player played and they used everyone in their bullpen, a 'pen that has seen a lot of work the last few games. They'll be coming in tired, guys.
