The Royals have stretched their power run to 10 straight games dating back to Aug. 10, the longest active homer streak in Major League Baseball. Through three games of the Texas series, Kansas City has gone deep seven times, with Vinnie Pasquantino homering in each game.
Extremely encouraging, Royals manager Matt Quatraro said of the hot stretch. You get three runs on one swing of the bat, it’s tremendous. Vinnie has been swinging the bat exceptionally well for a long period of time now, but the power is an added bonus.
Pasquantino’s contributions have been a focal point of the surge, delivering home runs in every game of the Texas series so far. The Royals will look to carry this hot stretch forward as they continue their matchup with Texas, hoping the offense can sustain the momentum and bolster the club’s push in the standings.
Why this matters: the continued power production from Kansas City’s lineup, led by Pasquantino, signals a potential turning point for an offense that has shown pop over a stretch. If the bats stay hot, the Royals could convert this surge into longer-term gains as the season progresses.
Summary for readers: Kansas City has homered in 10 straight games, seven in the first three games against Texas, with Pasquantino homering in each of those games, and a positive assessment from the manager about the offense’s pace and potential. Positive momentum could lift the mood and performance for the rest of the series and beyond.
