Mozzicato finished his day at 5.0IP, 1H, 0ER, 1BB, 8 SO.

The first one barely missed clearing the fence, so Roccaforte made sure this one was above the yellow line. Now 2/2 today with a 2B, HR

Frank Mozzicato has retired the first 9 batters in order on 32 pitches — 22 for strikes. He’s struck out 4 of them.

Just an insane week at the plate for Mitchell at this point.

He’s now 5-for-15 on the week.
2B, HR, 6 BB, 5 SO, 2 SB

This AB to leadoff the game was fantastic. Carson Roccaforte saw ten pitches and ended up driving a double to left-center.

Seaver King 🤯

114 MPH
461 feet

Blake Mitchell singled in his first AB today, raising his season average to .267. He also stole a bag for his sixth stolen base on the season.

In my latest post for Farm to Fountains I talk about MJ's most recent slump and his peculiar home and away splits not just this year but over his career #Royals

Our Jared Perkins froze his tail off at the recent Indiana/Maryland series, and now that he's thawed out, he's put together his live looks piece.

For more on Connor Foley, Devin Taylor, and others, here's what Jared has to say:

Not a single #Royals pitching prospect that’s starting today is making their first appearance of the season. Here are their ERA as we enter the day:
AAA: Jonathan Bowlan 2.25
AA: Tyson Guerrero 0.00
A+: Frank Mozzicato 0.00
A: Hunter Patteson 0.00

we're coooooking with fire

Brett Squires was great last year albeit against Low-A completion as a college product. I wanted to see what he did against tougher competition.

Well. This is his second HR of the year. He entered tonight with a 119 wRC+

Starting to think I seriously underestimated him. And I was probably higher on him than like 95% of people talking on this app.

That’s HR2 for Blake Mitchell. His OPS is now .939. He’s hitting .250 and has been really impressive early on. #Royals
