The Royals took a 2-1 lead in the top of the second on Brad Bergesen’s balk. Mitch Maier reached with one out on Ty Wigginton’s error. Not exactly a crisp inning.
Down on the farm, Triple-A Norfolk’s Nolan Reimold singled in his first at-bat and scored on Michael Aubrey’s two-run homer.
Aubrey’s doing everything he can to get noticed.
