Episode Transcript

Welcome back to Big Dill Sports, the show where we dive into all that’s sizzling in the sports world. I’m Dillon, your host, and today we’re talking about our recent saga with the Kansas City Royals. This episode, "Royals Recap," is packed with excitement, surprise victories, and a bit of heartache.

Let’s dive into the most recent development—the Royals’ seven-game winning streak brought to a harsh halt by the Boston Red Sox. It was Saturday, May 10, 2025, a day that felt like a rollercoaster. The Red Sox dominated, finishing the game with a decisive 10-1 win. But baseball is a team sport, and you’ve got to appreciate the stellar performance from Boston’s Rafael Devers. He was on fire, going four-for-four with three RBIs, while Trevor Story sent a three-run homer soaring out of the park. Carlos Narvaez joined the party with a two-run shot himself.

On the other end, the Red Sox's starter, Garrett Crochet, claimed his fourth win of the season. He was nearly untouchable, giving up just one run over seven solid innings and striking out nine. Talk about a clutch performance. For the Royals, though, the game didn't quite go as planned. Bobby Witt Jr. tried to power through, notching two of the seven hits Kansas City managed to muster. One of those was our only extra-base hit. This loss marked just the third time the Royals fell in their last 19 games, which is pretty impressive despite the setback.

Now, let’s take a step back and appreciate the journey that got us here. Looking at their recent games, the Royals have been on quite a ride. They pulled off a sweep against the Astros, an exciting series against the Rays, and won all but one against the Orioles. And who could forget that epic, resounding 10-0 win against the White Sox? Each game has chipped away at creating the narrative we’re following today.

So, who was the ‘big dill’ this episode? This week, I'm tipping my hat to Garrett Crochet. In a game where both teams had something to prove, his incredible performance on the mound was the standout. He kept the Royals’ bats largely silent and delivered under pressure—exactly what earns you the title of ‘big dill’ in my book.

Now, looking ahead, the Royals will face the Detroit Tigers next. I’ll be watching closely to see how they bounce back and if that spark reignites as they head into their next phase of the season.

That wraps up this episode of Big Dill Sports. Keep those caps on tight, Royals fans; we’re in for a riveting season! Thanks for tuning in, and until next time, I’m Dillon, reminding you to keep swinging for the fences. Catch you soon!
