Mandatory Credit: Jay Biggerstaff-Imagn Images<!-- --> <!-- --> </span></div></section><section id="section-1"> <p>The power bat of star shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. was missing in action for the first 27 games of the Kansas City Royals’ season.</p> </section><section id="section-2"> <p>But suddenly, Witt has homered in back-to-back games, and he’ll look to continue the streak Wednesday night when the Royals visit the Athletics in West Sacramento, Calif.</p> </section><section id="section-3"> <p>Witt delivered a tie-breaking, three-run blast in the top of the 10th inning as the Royals beat the A’s 4-1 in Tuesday’s opener of the three-game series.</p> </section><section id="section-4"> <p>He went the opposite way, and the blast barely cleared the short wall in right center to help Kansas City win its season-best fourth straight game.</p> </section><section id="section-5"> <p>“Just trying to piece it at-bat by at-bat and day-by-day and just trying to enjoy every moment that we can,” Witt said. “We’re going out there playing the game we love.”</p> </section><section id="section-6"> <p>Things are certainly more enjoyable now with the Royals having won five of six games following an eight-game slide.</p> </section><section id="section-7"> <p>Plus, Witt showing signs of putting his power slump behind him is a pleasing element. The 25-year-old hit 105 homers over his first four seasons, twice hitting 30 or more.</p> </section><section id="section-8"> <p>“He’s going to hit homers. We know that,” Royals manager Matt Quatraro said of the two-time All-Star, who has two home runs, 15 RBIs and a .289 batting average this season. “Just putting good swings on the ball more frequently is going to lead to that. He’s got unbelievable ability all around.”</p> </section><section id="section-9"> <p>Kansas City catcher Salvador Perez also homered for the second time in three games. He nearly had two home runs in the contest, but his other shot was a liner that wasn’t high enough to clear the wall. He was held to a single on that bid.</p> </section><section id="section-10"> <p>Shea Langeliers had three hits and Jacob Wilson had an RBI single on a frustrating night for the A’s, who left 14 runners on base.</p> </section><br/><section id="section-11"> <p>“We’re not getting that hit we need to extend leads and have some margin for error,” Athletics manager Mark Kotsay said. “Tough loss. … We played a really good game except for offense. We just couldn’t get a hit.”</p> </section> <section id="section-12"> <p>Athletics left fielder Tyler Soderstrom injured his right shoulder and was a little woozy after he missed on a diving catch in the fifth. He was replaced prior to the top of the sixth.</p> </section><section id="section-13"> <p>“There’s not signs of a concussion right now,” Kotsay said, “but obviously that dive, if you watch it, he slammed down pretty hard, fully extended.”</p> </section><section id="section-14"> <p>Kansas City outfielder Jonathan India (shoulder) underwent season-ending surgery on Tuesday, while first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino (lower back tightness) exited in the sixth inning. The latter was hurt while grounding out.</p> </section><section id="section-15"> <p>Kansas City is scheduled to send Michael Wacha (2-1, 2.51 ERA) to the mound against the Athletics’ Luis Severino (1-2, 5.17) on Wednesday in a battle of right-handers.</p> </section><section id="section-16"> <p>Wacha lost last Wednesday in his most recent start, when he allowed season worsts of six runs and seven hits over 5 1/3 innings in an 8-6 defeat to the Baltimore Orioles.</p> </section><section id="section-17"> <p>Wacha, 34, is 1-1 with a 3.31 ERA in three career starts against the Athletics. </p> </section><section id="section-18"> <p>Severino picked up his first victory of the season on Friday when he limited the Texas Rangers to one run and six hits over 6 2/3 innings in an 8-1 win.</p> </section><section id="section-19"> <p>Severino continues to struggle at Sutter Health Park and is 0-1 with a 7.15 ERA in two starts there this season. Overall, he is 2-10 with a 6.15 ERA in 17 starts at the ballpark since joining the A’s prior to the 2025 campaign.</p> </section><section id="section-20"> <p>Severino, 32, is 5-1 with a 3.67 ERA in seven career starts against Kansas City. </p> </section><section id="section-21"> <p>–Field Level Media</p> </section></div> #Deadspin #Bobby #Witt #finding #groove #streaking #Royals #face
