The Kansas City Royals fell to the Seattle Mariners on Tuesday night by the score of 11-6.  Usually when your pitching staff gives up eleven runs, you are going to lose the game just like the Royals did. 

John Bale took the loss the for Royals and is now 0-3 on the season.  Bale only lasted three inning as he gave up seven hits and three earned runs.  The Royals relievers really weren’t much better as Hideo Nomo gave up four earned runs, Ron Mahay and Yasuhiko Yabuta both gave up one earned run.  Terrible job by the pitching staff against the Mariners…

At the plate for the Royals, Tony Pena led the team with two RBI’s.  David DeJesus, Billy Butler, Alex Gordon, and Ross Gload all had one RBI each.

The Royals record is now 8-6.  Lets see how long they stay above the .500 mark.  Any guesses?
