John Buck had a memorable game for any player, let alone a catcher. After a rain delayed start to Thursday afternoon’s series finale at Kauffman Stadium, the Royals wrapped up their series with Toronto with an 8-6 win.
Buck has been hot the last couple of games and he continued that trend going 3 for 3 with two triples, a double, a sacrifice and five RBIs. The Royals jumped out to an early 8-2 after five innings, but the Blue Jays inched closer getting to within 8-6.
In the 9th, Juan Cruz, filling in for Joakim Soria retired the side for the save. The Royals take three of four from the Jays.
