Royals Extend Win Streak to Four with Shutout Victory

The Kansas City Royals continued their winning ways on Friday, defeating the Detroit Tigers 8-0 to extend their streak to four games. The star of the day was pitcher Seth Lugo, who delivered a masterful outing, tossing seven scoreless innings and matching a career-high with nine strikeouts. Lugo (4-1) was in complete control from the start, allowing just three singles and showcasing impressive fastball command throughout the game. “Being aggressive is always part of my plan, but I just had really good fastball command,” Lugo said after the game.
