Today was the opening day for the Kansas City Royals season. Though the team was facing the ace of the Detroit Tigers staff, Justin Verlander, there was reason for optimism as the Royals Cy Young winner from last year, Zack Greinke, was starting.
The Royals had a 4-2 lead when Greinke exited the game. The bullpen immediately gave up six runs and the Tigers had all the offense they would need to defeat the Royals 8-4.
It was another unfortunate day in the latest chapter of the Royals. For all the optimism and personnel changes today's result looks suspiciously like some from previous years. It's only one game though; things can only get better.
