On Thursday night, the Kansas City Royals defeated the Detroit Tigers 7-3. Rookie infielder Nicky Lopez hit his first career major league home run during the game, a memorable moment occurring in the very stadium where he previously played college baseball. On the mound for Kansas City, Homer Bailey delivered a strong performance, pitching six shutout innings and allowing only two hits to the opposing lineup in what was the first game of the series.
