Royals get a drubbing from Twins in 19-1 rout

Well, that was ugly. The Royals absolutely got their asses handed to them last night in 19-1 blowout loss to the Minnesota Twins. Hang L No. 10 of the season on Zack Greinke, who gifted Twins rookie Danny Valencia his first major league home run — a grand slam. Meanwhile, Joe Mauer went five for five with a home run and a career-best seven RBIs. In a measly four innings, Greinke gave up eight hits and eight runs. Ouch.
