KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Brandon Moss hit two home runs and Lorenzo Cain drove in the go-ahead run in the seventh inning as the Kansas City Royals beat the Seattle Mariners 6-4 on Thursday night.
The Royals rallied from deficits of 2-0 and 3-2 for their 32nd comeback victory. They snapped a three-game losing streak.
Moss homered in the fifth off Yovani Gallardo after Mike Moustakas had walked. That snapped a four-game homer-less skid for the Royals, which matched their longest drought of the season.
Moss also homered in eighth for his 11th career multi-homer game.
Emilio Pagan (0-2) took the loss, giving up two runs, one unearned, in the seventh.
KPUG EDIT: Ned Yost was ejected in the fourth-inning. The Royals manager was thrown out by plate umpire Larry Vanover after protesting the failure of the officiating crew to overturn Danny Valencia’s home run following video review.
