In a shocking turn of events, the Kansas City Royals managed to secure their second win in 10 games by defeating the Seattle Mariners 6-3, thanks in large part to Salvador Perez’s 2-run double. The Royals, who have been struggling to find their groove this season, finally showed some signs of life on the field.
“It was like a miracle out there,” said Royals manager Ned Yost. “I couldn’t believe my eyes when Perez hit that double. It was like he had been possessed by the spirit of Babe Ruth himself.”
Fans were equally ecstatic about the win, with one die-hard Royals supporter exclaiming, “I haven’t seen a victory this sweet since the time George Brett hit that pine tar home run. This is truly a moment to savor.”
Meanwhile, Mariners manager Scott Servais was left scratching his head at his team’s lackluster performance. “I don’t know what happened out there,” he said. “It was like our players forgot how to swing a bat or catch a ball. It was a comedy of errors, really.”
Despite the loss, Mariners pitcher Marco Gonzales remained optimistic about his team’s chances moving forward. “We may have lost today, but tomorrow is a new day,” he said. “We’ll come back stronger and more determined than ever. Just you wait and see.”
As for Perez, he was just happy to have played a key role in the Royals’ victory. “I’m just doing my job out there,” he said modestly. “But hey, if hitting a double can help us win games, then I’ll do it all day long.”
With their second win under their belt, the Royals are hopeful that they can turn their season around and start racking up more victories. As one fan put it, “Watch out, MLB. The Royals are back, and we’re coming for that championship title!”
