Royals gain sweep sparks heated clash with Twins
Kansas City Royals beat Minnesota 8-7 to complete a three game series sweep. Hal McRae and Minnesota catcher Glenn Borgmann clashed after a first inning slide that left Borgmann with ligament damage to the left knee and sidelined indefinitely. Borgmann called the slide a dirty cheap shot. McRae dismissed retaliation fears, saying the teams can play rough if needed. Brett sparked the comeback with a ninth inning run after Mayberry’s double and Brett’s later single and two more hits.
