Royals pitching makes history as KC inches closer to playoffsWASHINGTON -- All the talk over the last week was about the Royals’ scoreless streak as the offense worked through a funk at the plate. Now...
Michael Lorenzen - Removal deemed precautionaryLorenzen left his start against Washington on Wednesday as a precaution due to lower-body fatigue.
ImpactLorenzen was activated off the injured list earlier Wednesday after missing the past month with a hamstring strain, so the Royals likely didn't want to push it once he reported discomfort on the mound in the third inning. The 32-year-old's abbreviated outing will presumably mark the end of his regular season, giving him a 3.37 ERA and 1.25 WHIP alongside a 94:60 K:BB across 25 games (24 starts), and he'll now look to prepare for the Royals' postseason run.

Michael Lorenzen - Exits with trainerLorenzen was removed from Wednesday's game against the Nationals due to an apparent injury, Anne Rogers of MLB.com reports.
ImpactLorenzen was able to get through 2.1 innings in his first start back from the injured list before motioning for a trainer to come take a look at him. The Royals haven't yet specified what was bothering the right-hander enough for him to ask out of the game, though it may be related to the hamstring injury that kept him sidelined for nearly a month prior to Wednesday's outing.
