ALL WINS VIA BLANKINGS--Last night was Kansas City’s third win of the year and each have come while keeping the opposition off the board...the first two, in Detroit and Cleveland, respectively, were hold-your-breath 1-0 triumphs, while last night’s was a big exhale with a 10-0 final...the last Major League team to start the year with their first three triumphs occurring as shutouts were the 2016 Los Angeles Dodgers, when they opened the campaign with three straight blankings in San Diego...Jakob Junis has been the hottest during KC’s early stretch of shutouts, working 7.0 innings a week ago today in Detroit in the 1-0 triumph, then flirting with history last night by tossing no-hit ball for 6.1 innings and leaving after 7.0 without allowing a run. ROLLING WITH THE STARTERS--Dating back to a week ago today in Detroit, Kansas City’s four-pack of starters, Jakob Junis, Danny Duffy, Ian Kennedy and Jason Hammel have posted a 0.85 ERA (three earned runs in 31.2 innings), with eight walks and 25 strikeouts while holding opponents to a .127 average (14-for- 110)...the stretch has seen bookend 7.0-inning shutout performances by last night’s starter Junis...dating back to Friday in Cleveland when Danny Duffy was solved for three runs in the first inning, the starters have an active streak of 23.2 consecutive scoreless innings entering tonight. DARE WE SAY HEAT???--The Royals returned home to a first pitch temp of 42 degrees last night, which was made it the third “warmest” start for the club this year, all taking place here...the average first pitch temperature for the first eight games has been 39 degrees, starting with a pair of 45 degree starts here to open the season before an April Fool’s Day snowstorm postponed the Sunday finale...since April 2 in Detroit, the Royals and their opponents played in temps of 36 and 40 in Motown before a Wednesday postponement and then 41, 34 and 32 in Cleveland...tonight’s announced estimated first pitch temperature of near 55 degrees will mark the warmest day for KC since leaving Arizona on March 25. DUPE STAYS PERFECT--One of the top replay reviewers in the game, Bill Duplissea has converted his first three opportunities this year, including one in each of the last two games...fresh off a correction on Sunday in Cleveland, Duper noticed immediately that Mike Moustakas had beaten the throw on a second inning infield hit and just 36 seconds into the review the much warmer New York crew agreed...in his four-plus years as the replay coordinator, Duplissea has made good on over 66% of his challenges, which ranks among the best, including a season mark of 69% (24-for-35) last year, which was second to the New York Yankees 74% (28-of- 38)...Duper closed 2016 as the best in baseball with a 69.2% success rate, converting 27 of 39 challenges.

SOLID SPRING--Skoglund went 1-0 with a 3.38 ERA (4 ER in 10.2 IP) in four Cactus League outings, which included no walks and 11 strikeouts...the victory came in what wound up his final spring outing, March 17, when he bested the Rangers, 7-6...in that outing, he pitched around three first-inning runs and fanned a spring-high six hitters in 4.0 innings. DYNAMITE DEBUT IN ‘17--Eric debuted on May 30 of last season, earning a 1-0 victory over Detroit, tossing 6.1 scoreless frames to top two-time AL Cy Young Award winner, Justin Verlander...the lefty allowed just two hits and a walk, while racking up five strikeouts to become the 10th Royal to start and win his big league debut...his 6.1 scoreless frames marked the third-longest outing without a run by a KC pitcher in his first start, trailing only Rich Gale (1978) and Derek Botelho (1982), who both fired 7.0 shutout innings in their debuts...according to Elias Sports Bureau, Skoglund was also the third starting pitcher in Major League history to win 1-0 over a former Cy Young Award winner in his MLB debut, joining Steve Woodward (July 28, 1997 over Roger Clemens) and Lee Tunnell (September 4, 1982 over Fernando Valenzuela).

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets.
