Massey’s Clutch Homer Turns Series | Kansas City Royals News

The Royals pulled off a dramatic comeback win in Detroit, splitting the four-game series after trailing 4-3 in the fifth. Michael Massey, called up as a pinch-hitter, delivered a clutch two-run homer in the eighth to give Kansas City a 5-4 lead they never relinquished. Massey’s breakout performance—his eighth homer of the season and .340 batting average over his last 15 games—marks a huge leap from his 3 HR in 77 games last year. With seven wins in their last ten since the All-Star break and every Detroit game this season decided by one run, the Royals are proving they can grind out wins in high-stakes moments—perfect timing as the trade deadline nears.
