The Royals took on the Cubs on Sunday needing one win to secure the #2 Seed for the upcoming playoffs. And in Game 1 they did just that. After the Royals jumped to an early 4-0 lead, the Cubs chipped away and after a few innings of back and forth scoring for both sides, the Royals entered the bottom of the sixth inning with the score 6-5. It was then that the Royals bats exploded for 6 runs on 6 hits making it 12-5. It was the most hits and runs that the Royals offense had in a single game this season and was lead by Ryan Ritell's monster day at the plate (3-3, R, 2B, 5RBI, SAC Fly). Ryan Bowen picked up his 3rd win of the season pitching 6 innings while Kevin Ceurvels closed the door with a scoreless 7th. The win officially secured the 2 seed for the Royals.
