Aside from second baseman Michael Massey inexplicably lifting a heater below his knees for a bloop single in the sixth for the Royals’ only base runner, this looked a lot like what was promised when he was acquired during the 2016 winter meetings: Kopech blowing away a major-league lineup with his dominant fastball. ![]() 1 and 1A for much of the evening, the pitch generated 15 swings-and-misses.

But Kopech didn’t need any extra margin for error and provided plenty to break down on his own.
