Phillies bring all the fireworks to Royals’ fourth straight loss
July 5, 2026 - 04:55
The Phillies brought the fireworks early, launching solo shots that kept the Royals playing catch-up all night. Kansas City's offense could not find any rhythm against Philadelphia's pitching staff, managing only a single run. The loss extends a frustrating stretch for a team that had been playing competitive baseball just a week ago.
Wacha's performance was a letdown given the recent All-Star honor, but he avoided a complete meltdown. The Royals will need to regroup quickly if they want to stop the slide. Their bullpen held firm after Wacha left, but the damage was already done. The team now looks to avoid a sweep as they continue the series.
