00:00 And boy was it a big one in Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.
00:10 The Royals get up all over the Houston Astros.
00:13 They win outright as a home underdog to complete the sweep in this homestand in this midweek
00:19 series against Houston.
00:21 Plus 120 as your pregame moneyline underdog.
00:25 Kansas City wins 13 to 3.
00:29 The Royals, DRS, scored nine runs in the bottom of the first.
00:33 Kansas City now is a 9-4 baseball team who has won seven consecutive games.
00:39 And after dropping their first two of the year, they have won nine of their previous
00:44 11.
00:45 Craig Mish told us before this year got underway, Beck, Kansas City, over 73 and a half wins.
00:51 And listen, there is a long way to go in this Major League Baseball season.
00:55 But I am loving what I see out of KC at this moment.
01:00 Pay a guy a lot of money and see what he does as a young player.
01:03 That's Bobby Witt Jr. yesterday.
01:04 You want to see 13 runs on the board?
01:06 You want to make sure your young superstar was involved.
01:08 How about this, Ben?
01:09 Four of five yesterday, two bombs, five RBI, and now hitting .358 on the young season here.
01:15 That looks like a superstar that's going to be around Kansas City for quite some time.
01:19 But let's also take a look at Hunter Brown, who's thought to be one of the aces on the
01:22 staff for the Houston Astros.
01:24 He didn't have a great season last year, opened up a little bit rough, and then you have one
01:28 of the single worst pitching performances in the 100 plus years of Major League Baseball.
01:34 Two thirds of an inning pitched here, 11 hits, nine earned runs, didn't strike anybody out
01:40 and throw in a walk here.
01:41 He didn't even survive at this point.
01:43 And watching it live on Moneyline yesterday, like, come on, man, seven, eight runs.
01:46 They're going to pull this guy.
01:47 Nope.
01:48 Another base hit, another run.
01:49 They got to pull him next.
01:50 Nope.
01:51 Another base hit.
01:52 It looks like they were just trying to get him out of that inning to survive.
01:53 And he wasn't able to do that.
01:55 That's the Kansas City Royals at nine and four on the season, throwing heavyweight haymakers
02:00 at the Houston Astros, who now sit who coming into the season.
02:04 Let's keep in mind, guys, the American League's most favorite team here to win the pennant.
02:08 They're four and ten.
02:09 Sorry, that's rough.
