KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Brady Singer stuck out nine, Vinnie Pasquantino hit a three-run triple and the Kansas City Royals completed a sweep of the Oakland Athletics with an 8-1 victory Sunday.
It was the third sweep of the season for Kansas City. It took until September 20 for the Royals to record their third sweep of the season last year.
Singer (4-2) tossed six innings on one-run ball, giving up six hits with one walk and nine strikeouts. It was the fifth time this season that Singer has stuck out six or more and was one shy of his season high. He has gone at least five innings in every start this season.
“That’s what we were hoping for, the early counts and low pitch counts and making them make decisions,” Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. “Certainly couldn’t ask more for that when it comes to efficiency. To have him set the tone like that and get the early lead that’s all we could hope for.”
