Rangers 4, Royals 2
Bobby Keppel looks great. I know, I know... it's a small sample size. But in two starts, Keppel has looked light years ahead of any other Royals starter this season.
Keppel held the Rangers scoreless through 8 innings, and manager Buddy Bell ran him back out there to try to finish the game. I'm sure Keppel was anxious to notch his first complete game shutout.
Keppel gave up a hit to the lead off batter and that was enough for Bell. Keppel could only watch in horror as Bell summoned Ambiorix Burgos from the bullpen. Burgos quickly let Keppel's run score along with one of his own. Seeing Burgos struggling forced Bell to ask Elmer Dessens to try to keep the game tied. He couldn't, letting two more runs score and allowing the Ranger to up for good 4-2.
