Episode Details

The Royals are another day closer to Opening Day and getting a little healthier. Catcher Salvador Perez participated in his first scrimmage on Tuesday and singled in his first at-bat. There will be three exhibition games in three days starting on Monday before the regular-season opener Friday.

Beat writer Lynn Worthy and Star columnist Sam Mellinger join Blair Kerkhoff on SportsBeat KC to talk baseball and how the Royals are shaping up for the shortened season. After a break you’ll hear from pitcher Tim Hill, a left reliever who despite health concerns, decided not to opt out on the season.
