The Royals lose another home series.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re in a rut,\u201d Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. \u201cEvery team goes through something like this.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is prolonged for us, and we are not hiding from that. We need … to stack wins together. And that\u2019s why it\u2019s disappointing today that we didn\u2019t.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe love playing here,\u201d manager Matt Quatraro said. \u201cWe haven\u2019t played well here, that\u2019s obvious, but it hasn\u2019t been fun for us, it hasn\u2019t been fun for our fans. We\u2019re going to try to do everything we can for the fans that follow us on the road, who watch us on TV \u2014 we\u2019re going to play better baseball. It doesn\u2019t matter where we go.\u201d<\/p>\n

Seth Lugo was impressive in a win on Saturday.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cI think it\u2019s really important to keep those guys off base,\u201d Lugo said. \u201cThose two, they get their whole lineup going, so if I can really bear down against the one-two in their lineup, we\u2019ve got a pretty good shot at putting up zeros, and that\u2019s what we did.\u201d<\/p>\n

NLBM President Bob Kendrick laments the absence of Negro League throwback uniforms.<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cThe last two years they haven\u2019t worn the uniforms,\u201d Kendrick said. \u201cI think it was a highly anticipated part of this celebration. The fans enjoy seeing the teams wear those uniforms. The players enjoyed wearing those uniforms. And of course, we know those game-worm uniforms would be auctioned with the proceeds coming back to benefit the museum. So in lieu of wearing the uniforms, both teams over the last couple of years have won commemorative caps. <\/p>\n

\u201cAnd they\u2019ll auction those off and raise money for the museum as well. But it\u2019s not quite the same. It\u2019s not the pageantry, nor does it generate the same level of support that the uniforms would.\u201d <\/p>\n
