6-2 and the second shutout of the season already, including eight shutout innings out of Greinke.  Hard to find much fault with him tonight, though I'd like to see a few more strikeouts (particularly since he's on my fantasy team).  Frankly I'm pretty surprised they completed the game, but good to see the Royals get the win, clinch the series, and most likely take over sole possession of first place in the division again (currently Chicago is down 12-4 in the 8th inning against the Twins).

We did that in the prediction thread, I doubt many people will change their answers. Yes they look good but it is early.

One of the anchors on Sportsceter has been hammering the other because he alluded that the Royals play in Kansas after making a reference to KU.
