The Blue Jays improved to 6-1 on the road this season, while
Kansas City lost its 11th straight to finish up a winless 10-game
homestand. The Royals became the first team to lose its first 10 at
home since the Chicago Cubs dropped 12 in a row at Wrigley Field in
1994.
Eric Hosmer scored the Royals' only run with a homer leading off
the second inning.
Otherwise, Brandon Morrow (1-1) took care of the struggling
Kansas City lineup. The right-hander allowed seven hits and one
walk in 6 2-3 innings, and Luis Perez and Francisco Cordero did the
rest. Cordero got some help from a double-play groundout in the
ninth for his second save.
