Hammel solid as Royals hammer Carrasco, Indians 12-5

Jason Hammel had been having trouble attacking the strike zone this season, the constant nibbling at the corners leading to an abundance of walks and cheap jerseys nearly as many runs.

The Royals' right-hander certainly attacked the zone on UserPostedImage Saturday.

Got after the Cleveland Indians, too.

After serving up a pair of homers in the second inning, Hammel only allowed two more hits while pitching into Kansas City Chiefs Jerseys the seventh. And backed by a six-run fifth inning highlighted by Lorenzo Cain's two-run home run, Kansas City went on to trounce its AL Central rival 12-5 and ensure a series victory.

"He kept getting better and better. His pitches kept sharper and sharper," Royals manager Ned Yost said. "We just ask you to keep us in the game and that's what he did."

Whit Merrifield and Mike Moustakas had two-run doubles off Carlos Carrasco (5-3) during the Royals' big inning, and a five-run seventh inning helped them score their most runs all season.

"Once we kind of got rolling, it was nice to pour it on like that," said Merrifield, who extended his hitting streak to a career-best and Major League-leading 18 games. "Against a team like that you can never have enough runs."

Hammel (2-6) gave up Cleveland Indians Jerseys homers to Carlos Santana and Bradley Zimmer in the third, but he retired 15 of his next 17 batters before giving way to Mike Minor with two outs in the seventh.

Hammel struck out seven without a walk for his first win since beating Cleveland on May 5.

"Stayed in the strike zone with quality pitches," said Hammel, who had walked at least one batter in every game this season. "A lot of fly balls today but overall a much better job."
