So, yeah, that's four Didi Gregorius Jersey straight shutouts the Royals had endured entering Tuesday. They hadn't scored since Thursday in the second inning of their eventual 3-2 loss to the Rockies. This, you may have guessed, put KC Don Mattingly Jersey on the cusp of Lamentable History. They were already the first team since 1992 to be shut out in four straight games. Add in Thursday's efforts -- such as they were -- and the Royals' offense hadn't scored in 43 straight innings. The record? The 1906 Philadelphia Athletics and 1968 Chicago Jacoby Ellsbury Jersey Cubs share it with 48 straight scoreless frames. Alas, the Royals ended their streak fairly early on Tuesday night against Alex Cobb and the Rays. Whit Merrifield hit Jon Niese Jersey a solo home run with two outs in the third, ending the Royals' drought at 45 2/3 innings.
