FATEFUL FOURTH AS TEMPERS FLARE--Yordano faced the minimum Yordano’s 2015 Starts through three frames on Saturday vs. Oakland, but was touched up for five runs in the DATE OPPONENT SCORE IP H R ER HR BB SO TP-K LEFT 4/6 vs. Chicago W, 10-1 6.0 4 1 1 1 1 2 81-56 4-1 fourth in a 5-0 loss to the A’s...the second-year righty allowed five runs on four hits with 4/12 @ L.A.

OUTSTANDING FIRST SEASON--Yordano produced one of the best rookie seasons by a pitcher in club history, becoming just the fourth KC freshman hurler to start 30 games or more...his 14 victories tied Rich Gale (1978) for fourth by a Royals rookie and were tops since Tom Gordon’s team-record 17 during his first season (1988)...he led MLB first-year pitchers in innings (183.0) and opponents’ average (.240), while setting a club rookie record with 22 quality starts, which were also tops among A.L. rookies in 2014. POSTSEASON SUCCESS--Not only did ‘Ace’ enjoy a brilliant regular season, he continued his fine work into the postseason, going 1-0 with a 3.20 ERA (9 ER in 25.1 IP) in five appearances (four starts)...he capped his year with 7.0 shutout innings in a do-or-die Game #6 of the World Series as KC forced a deciding game with a 10-0 triumph...in his two World Series starts, Ventura allowed just two runs in 12.1 frames (1.64 ERA). THOU SHALT NOT STEAL--Yordano has allowed just one stolen base in 210.0 career innings, while just three baserunners have attempted to steal on him... in his April 12 start, Angels’ first baseman Albert Pujols tried to swipe third, but was thrown out...since 1963, only former Cardinals’ hurler Jason Simontacchi (2002-07) has thrown more innings (355.2) and allowed one steal...Yoenis Cespedes is the only successful base stealer with Ventura on the hill, swiping second while with Boston last September 12 at Kauffman Stadium. SUCCESS IN THE CENTRAL-- ‘Ace’ is on a roll in the division, winning eight of his last nine decisions while posting a 2.38 ERA in 11 games (10 starts) since June 11 of last season...in his career, he’s 8-4 with a 3.18 ERA overall vs.
