Your back-to-back MLB Hits king. 👑

Lock it down, 'Los. 🔒 Carlos Estévez is your 2025 MLB Saves leader.

Thank YOU 🥹

That’s a wrap on the 2025 season. The Kansas City Royals end the year with a win & finish with a winning record at 82-80. Thank you for tuning in all season long. An honor & a joy to share these games with you. Until 2026!

Carter Jensen just hit a mammoth home run for his third hit of the afternoon. On a 3-0 pitch, he smacked a 482-foot blast that nearly cleared the berm in RF at Sutter Health Park. It's the *longest home run by a Royal in the Statcast era (2015-pres.).*

Game 162/162! The Royals hope to end the year with a win to clinch a winning record. Cole Ragans—the team’s Opening Day starter, starts the season finale. Hope you’ll join us on the radio one final time in 2025. Thanks for listening all season long!

Carlos Estévez earns his 42nd save of the season. In a truly outstanding first season with the Royals, Estévez clinches the Major League lead in saves. He's the second Royal to lead all of MLB in saves, joining Dan Quisenberry who did so with 45 saves in 1983.

Michael Wacha throws 6.0 scoreless innings in his final start of 2025. He ends his second season as a Royal with a 3.86 ERA in 172.2 innings across a career-high 31 starts. As consistent & dependable of a starter the team had all season.

We’ve reached the penultimate game of the season! Michael Wacha makes his career-best 31st start of the season & the Royals hope to even the series to clinch a record of at least .500. Stay up late with us on the radio!

Noah Cameron grinded through 4.2 innings and was ultimately charged with 3 ER in his final start of the year. He ends his rookie season with a 2.99 ERA in 138.1 innings across 24 starts with 114 K & 43 BB. A terrific first season for the Southpaw from St. Joseph.

Hello from West Sacramento! The Royals (80-79) begin their final series of the season & make their first visit to Sutter Health Park, the temporary home of the Athletics (75-84). Noah Cameron makes the final start of his outstanding rookie year. Come hang on the radio!

Thankfully, Vinnie Pasquantino hit the *next* pitch in a better direction for a two-run homer. Producer/engineer Eric Guthrie’s computer died a hero.

Series finale from SoCal! Anaheim native Michael Lorenzen, who went to nearby Fullerton Union HS & Cal State Fullerton, makes his final start of the season against the Angels. Join us for Thursday night baseball 📻

Ready for baseball at The Big A! The Royals go for a second straight win over the Angels. Stay up late with us on the radio!

Cole Ragans finishes his night with a 96.6 mph fastball for his 10th strikeout. It's his fifth game with double digit strikeouts this season & third time with 10+ Ks in only 5.0 IP. Final line: 5.0 IP, 3 H, 2 R/ER, 1 BB, 10 K, 72p-44s

Cole Ragans has struck out six of the first seven batters he's faced tonight, including striking out the side in the second inning. All six strikeouts swinging. He's thrown 30 pitches/20 strikes through 2.0 IP.

Another milestone for the Captain. 👏 Salvy has the 2nd most RBI in Royals history with 1,013.

Hello from Anaheim! The Royals have officially been eliminated from postseason contention, but can end the season above .500 with a winning road trip. First of three against the Angels (70-86) on deck. LHP Cole Ragans is on the mound. Join us on the radio!

Good morning & Shana Tova—here’s to a sweet, healthy, & happy year ahead. (The seagull was a paid actor.)

Carter Jensen's caught stealing of Vladimir Guerrero Jr. to end the 7th inning was the second of his career & his first at Kauffman Stadium. His first CS was credited as a result of a 1-3-4 pickoff, so today's instance was the first *runner he's thrown out* as a big leaguer.

Home finale! Thanks for making Kauffman Stadium such a special place all season long. Hope you’ll join us on the radio—Hall of Famer Denny Matthews wraps up his 57th season broadcasting Royals baseball. For those tuning in locally in Kansas City, we’re on 610 AM.

Today's game includes a matchup of 2024 1st round picks in Jac Caglianone (6th) & Trey Yesavage (20th), who were USA Baseball Collegiate National Team teammates in 2023. It's the second matchup this season of 2024 1st round picks. Chase Burns (2nd) faced Nick Kurtz (4th) last weekend in Sacramento.

FAN-tastic Fan Appreciation Day! #HEYHEYHEYHEY

Count on Cameron.

Back-to-back blasts have us on the board!

One more ride this season with @RexHudler1 on FanDuel Sports KC! Always so much fun to share the air with him. What kind of encore do the Royals have after 20 runs on 27 hits last night? St. Joseph’s own Noah Cameron makes the final home start of his rookie season. Come hang!

A messy scorecard as a result of franchise history. The Royals collect a franchise-record 27 hits and score 20 runs in a 20-1 win over the Blue Jays at Kauffman Stadium.

How's that for a 1st inning? The Royals send 11 batters to the plate (10 against Max Scherzer) and score seven runs on seven hits. Carter Jensen doubled *twice,* while both Salvador Perez & Michael Massey homered.

In his first at-bat as a leadoff hitter, 22-year-old Carter Jensen lines an opposite-field, two-strike double to LCF against 41-year-old future HOFer Max Scherzer. Jensen, who's playing in his 12th MLB game, now has a six-game hitting streak.

Beautiful night for Friday night baseball at Kauffman Stadium! The Royals (76-77) face the first-place Blue Jays (89-64) & future HOFer Max Scherzer. Come hang on the radio!

22-year-old Carter Jensen (b. 7/3/2003) hits leadoff for the first time in his MLB career. In his first plate appearance tonight, he'll face 41-year-old future Hall of Famer Max Scherzer (b. 7/27/1984).

Stephen "Cruise Control" Kolek. After allowing a run on two hits in the 2nd inning, he retired 18 of the final 20 batters he faced (including 16 straight). He struck out a career-high eight batters, while throwing 99 pitches/74 strikes. 7.1 IP, 2 H, 2 R/1 ER, 1 BB, 8 K

Ready for baseball at The K! The Royals wrap up their series with the Mariners & go for a series win. Join us on the radio!

With his 40th save of the season, Carlos Estévez becomes the fifth pitcher in Royals history (eighth instance) with a 40+ saves in a season. He joins Greg Holland (2x), Joakim Soria (2x), Jeff Montgomery, & Dan Quisenberry (2x). The list (via @stathead.com):

Adam Frazier's go-ahead, two-run homer: As close to foul as a fair ball can be.

Welcome back, Cole Ragans 🔥🔥🔥 3 batters, 3 swinging strikeouts. He threw 11 pitches—including *10 fastballs with 8 whiffs*—and topped out at 97.9 mph.

For the first time since early June, it’s a Cole Ragans start day. The Royals’ lefty ace returns from a three-month stint on the Injured List to square off with the supernaturally-hot Mariners, which have now won 10 consecutive games. Come hang on the radio!

Some fun Jac Caglianone & Carter Jensen parallels: • Both began this season in Double-A • Both made their MLB debuts at 22 years old • Both had an RBI double down the RF line for their first MLB hit • Both hit their first two MLB home runs in the same game 📸: Amy Kontras

Proud of our Roberto Clemente Award nominee! 💙

Final homestand of the season! No way around it—the Royals open up a must-win series with the first-place Mariners. Michael Wacha returns from the IL & goes against Logan Gilbert. Come hang on the radio!

Noah Cameron now has a 2.98 ERA through his 22 career starts. He's been outstanding this season.

Noah Cameron completes 7.0 innings for the third time in his career & second start in a row. After allowing two solo HR in the first inning, he finished with 6.0 scoreless, retiring the final 11 batters he faced & 13 of the last 14. 7.0 IP, 4 H, 2 R/ER, 1 BB, 7 K, 96p-61s

One more from Philadelphia! The Royals hope to avoid a sweep & get back to .500 behind LHP Noah Cameron. The Phillies can clinch the NL East with a win or Mets loss. For those listening locally in Kansas City, we’re on 610 AM this afternoon. Join us!

S/o to the legend, Frankie Two Scoops. Frank Mazzuca—now a spry 84 years old!—has been scooping ice cream in press dining at Citizens Bank Park over 25 years. Seeing him is definitely a highlight of coming to Philly (and his nickname is WELL-earned)!

First career start at catcher for Carter Jensen, & he does so as Noah Cameron's battery mate. They are the third all-Missouri-born starting battery in Royals history, joining Steve Mingori/Darrell Porter (6/10/79) & Mark Littell/Darrell Porter (4x, last - 9/28/77).
