KANSAS CITY, Mo. Carson Wentz Eagles Jersey . -- Paulo Orlando entered this season as a spare outfielder with the Kansas City Royals. Hes finishing it as a productive starter.Orlando had four hits to match his career high in the Royals 7-6 loss to the Minnesota Twins on Thursday night.Orlando is hitting .459 in his past 10 games to hike his average to .307.Paulo has really been swinging his bat, Royals manager Ned Yost said. Hes really focused on trying to hit .300. Thats a big goal.Orlando was batting when the game ended, but he never saw a pitch.After Salvador Perezs pinch-hit RBI single with two outs in the ninth inning pulled the Royals within a run, Terrance Gore ran for him. Brandon Kintzler picked Gore off first base to end the game.Kintzler made two throws to first baseman Kennys Vargas and the second one nabbed Gore, but he never threw a pitch to Orlando.Gore was initially called safe, but after a 1 minute, 15 second review, the call was reversed.The replay said I wasnt safe, so stay with it, Gore said. I was just anticipating the front foot up and thats when I went.Gore is used almost strictly as a pinch-runner and has 11 steals in 12 attempts this season.He got caught leaning, Yost said.Bryon Buxtons one-out double triggered a three-run ninth off Kelvin Herrera (2-6). Robbie Grossman, Miguel Sano and Max Kepler contributed run-scoring singles in the inning.Kelvin takes the ball, no matter how he feels, Yost said. Hes worn down from the extra work.The Twins won for the first time in 10 games this season at Kauffman Stadium.Michael Tonkin (3-2) was the winner, while Kintzler logged his 16th save in 19 opportunities despite giving up two runs, three hits and a walk.Royals left-hander Danny Duffy was pulled with one out in the seventh, allowing four runs and eight hits, including a solo homer to Vargas in the sixth.You think weve really got to go deep with Danny, as far as we can go and a 25-pitch first inning and Im like, `Oh, man, thats not good for business right there, Yost said. But, then, he went out and had a very economical second inning, got to within three over par and then got back to exact par in the third inning, so I felt pretty good about it.The Twins three-run seventh included a two-run triple by Buxton, who scored on Jorge Polancos single.Twins starter Kyle Gibson failed to hold the two-run lead through the bottom of the inning. Jarrod Dyson tripled home Drew Butera and scored on Whit Merrifields single to tie the score.Orlando had two doubles, while Butera had three hits, equaling his career best, including a single to lead off the ninth.Royals designated hitter Kendrys Morales was lifted for a pinch-hitter in the fifth inning.He got sick, Yost said. He was running a little bit of a fever and was down in energy.ONE MORE VICTORYThe Royals need one victory in their final three games to have a winning record for the fourth consecutive year. The last time the Royals accomplished that was 1975-1980, six straight winning seasons.TRAINERS ROOMTwins: 1B Joe Mauer, who is hitless in his past 15 at-bats, missed the three games against the Royals with a quad injury.Royals: RHP Kris Medlen, who is on the 60-day DL with rotator cuff inflammation, said he is shut down until November when he will begin a throwing program. Beyond frustrating, Medlen described his season. He was 1/3 with a 7.77 ERA in six starts.UP NEXTTwins: RHP Tyler Duffey has allowed 198 base runners (161 hits), 31 walks and six hit batters in 131 innings. He will make his final start Friday at the White Sox, who will counter with LHP Carlos Rodon.Royals: RHP Yordano Ventura is 0-1 with 5.40 ERA in two starts this season against the Indians. Cleveland LHP Ryan Merritt will make his first big league start. Harold Carmichael Womens Jersey . The 17-year-old native of Marystown, N.L., pulled out of Skate Canada International last month in Saint John, N.B., with the same problem. Wilbert Montgomery Eagles Jersey . -- Kyrie Irvings last-minute 3-pointer helped seal another victory for Cleveland -- and the Cavaliers longest winning streak since LeBron James left. http://www.theeaglesshoponline.com/Youth...-Eagles-Jersey/ . Having already announced that the race will start May 9 with three stages in Northern Ireland and Ireland and finish in Trieste on June 1, the rest of the route was unveiled Monday. LATROBE, Pa. -- Pittsburgh Steelers center Maurkice Pouncey is happy to be playing football again after the All-Pro nearly had the game he loves taken from him.Pouncey suffered a broken ankle that required surgery in the Steelers third preseason game last season. He was placed on the teams short-term injured reserve and planned to return later in the season, but several unexpected setbacks threatened his career.He couldve lost his leg, Steelers offensive lineman Ramon Foster said. To have it almost taken away . that guys career almost ended. Hes excited to be back on the football field and Im looking forward to seeing him in the first preseason game.A severe infection set in, resulting in additional surgeries -- seven according to Pouncey, who underwent three major procedures and four he described as `clean ups.Playing football was never a concern, Pouncey said. The biggest concern was the infection. Whenever you have an infection, you cant predict that. The medicine really has to work the right way. Everybody was hoping for the best. You really cant blame anyone. Things happened and it went downhill.His teammates were concerned.He would get done with a surgery and go right back into another one, Foster said. It was trying. You can say its just cosmetic stuff, but thats painful and time consuming.Pouncey initially planned to return in late November at Seattle, a week after the teams bye.It makes it even more frustrating, having a chance (to return) and then losing it, but he handled it well, offensive line coach Mike Muunchak said. Harold Carmichael Youth Jersey. Im sure it was depressing because you feel like youre not part of the team even though you still are. Its a hard thing mentally for a player.Members of the offensive line tried to help by going to his house every Thursday.It was very important because you feel left out, Foster said. He was just glad to have us around. He would order the food and he would pay for it. He wanted us there. When you have that type of situation, and you finally get him back healthy, hes not taking it for granted.Pouncey didnt hold back in his return either, taking part in spring offseason workouts. Hes participating fully during training camp practices at St. Vincent College.Hes a hard guy to rest because he only knows 100 percent, Munchak said. Well do our best to rest him, especially preseason when we can control him, but you cant be worried about things happening. Thats how he plays the game.Pouncey hopes for a return to form this season.He became the first center in NFL history to be selected to the Pro Bowl in each of his first three seasons. The Steelers were confident enough to make Pouncey the highest paid center after he missed all but eight snaps of the 2013 season with a torn anterior cruciate ligament. He followed it up with his second All-Pro and fourth Pro Bowl season in 2014.Theres really nothing he cant do, Munchak said. I think its the whole package that makes him special.
