Royals 3, Palms 0

The Palms were shut down again by the Royals staff, this time a combination of Luke Hochevar and Joakim Soria held the Palms to only 5 hits. The Palms expect to start hitting later in the season, but the positive sign was a decent outing from Dave Balierough and quality relief from three pitchers in the bullpen. Expect this team to start reeling of victories sooner rather than later.
