UNDATED (AP) — The Toronto Blue Jays continue to rip through their major league schedule, while the Kansas City Royals appear far removed from the ballclub that won the World Series 2 ½ years ago.
Curtis Granderson belted a grand slam and Teoscar (tay-AHS’-kur) Hernandez went 4-for-6 with a two-run shot and four RBIs as the Blue Jays crushed the Kansas City Royals, 15-5 to complete a three-game sweep. Yangervis Solarte (yahn-HEHR’-vihs soh-LAHR’-tay) also homered and Kevin Pillar (pee-AHR’) added three hits and an RBI to help the Jays win for the 12th time in 15 games since an 0-2 start.
Whit Merrifield and Jorge Soler (soh-LEHR’) went deep for the Royals, who are an American League-worst 3-13 following their eighth consecutive loss.
