Brady Singer's slider leaves him hanging in Kansas City Royals' loss to Twins The Twins got to Royals pitcher Brady Singer for five home runs in 4 2/3 innings on Saturday night.
Taken deep five times Singer (4-10) took the loss Saturday against the Twins, giving up six runs on seven hits and a pair of walks over 4.2 innings. He struck out five.
Impact Singer was tagged for five -- count 'em, five -- home runs after having allowed just one over his previous eight starts. Jorge Polanco took him deep twice, while Byron Buxton, Nick Gordon and Max Kepler each added solo blasts -- the first time an opposing lineup has hit multiple homers off Singer since June 22. Singer, who has just one win in his last 14 outings (1-6), is tentatively lined up to face Seattle at home next week.

Over his last four starts, the 25-year-old righty has allowed four earned runs over 24.2 innings (1.46 ERA) with a 23:9 K:BB. Singer is lined up to face the Twins on the road next weekend.

No help in loss Singer (3-9) allowed four runs (one earned) on seven hits and four walks while striking out six in five innings, taking the loss versus Houston on Tuesday.
Impact A pair of first-inning errors by Kansas City's defense didn't help Singer's cause, and the offense mustered just four hits in the entire game. The right-hander has to shoulder some share of the blame, however, as he allowed more than 10 baserunners for the sixth time in 22 starts. He has a 5.07 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 106:46 K:BB through 103 innings this year. Singer lines up for a slightly easier matchup at home versus Cleveland next week.

Strong showing in no-decision Singer allowed two runs on six hits and two walks while striking out six in 6.2 innings, taking a no-decision versus Houston on Wednesday.
Impact Singer cruised through the first six innings before giving up a two-run single to Jason Castro with two outs in the seventh. The right-hander was spared from the loss as Kansas City retook the lead in its half of the inning. This was Singer's seventh quality start in 21 appearances this year. He's posted a 5.23 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 100:42 K:BB through 98 innings. He'll look to enjoy similar success next week in a road rematch in Houston.

Knocked around in loss Singer (3-8) allowed five runs on 10 hits and three walks with two strikeouts in 3.2 innings, taking the loss versus the Yankees on Wednesday.
Impact In his first start since a stint on the injured list with right shoulder fatigue, the 25-year-old allowed five of the first six batters to reach base. Singer induced double plays in the first and third innings, but he was no match for the Yankees on Wednesday. He's now at a 5.42 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 94:40 K:BB across 91.1 innings in a difficult second major-league season. Singer projects to make his next start at home versus Houston next week on six days' rest with Kansas City deploying a six-man rotation going forward.
