Graham Pauley Homers and Triples to Drive in 4 Runs as Miami Marlins Beat Royals 6-3 in Kansas City
Pauley drove in four runs after a Triple-A recall, and Tyler Phillips held Kansas City to one hit over five scoreless innings.
Graham Pauley drove in four runs on Tuesday night, powering the Miami Marlins to a 6-3 victory over the Kansas City Royals with a two-run homer and two-run triple.
Recalled from Triple-A Jacksonville as rosters expanded, Pauley delivered after Miami earned a needed win following three losses in four games at Washington.
Kyle Stowers delivered a two-out homer in the fifth to make it 3-0, while Pauley's two-run homer came in the second inning and his triple split the right-center field gap in the seventh after Otto Lopez and Joe Mack scored.
Kansas City rallied in the eighth with Carter Jensen recording an RBI double and Bobby Witt Jr. delivering a sacrifice fly, yet the Royals' season-high seven-game home winning streak ended.
Miami Marlins improved to 70-69 with the needed victory, while Kansas City Royals fell to 62-77; Tyler Phillips earned his fourth win, allowing one hit over five scoreless innings with four strikeouts.
