Royals rookie Daniel Lynch allowed one run over seven crisp innings against a club leading the majors in runs, hits, batting average and just about every other important offensive stat. And when he turned over the lead to his bullpen, they made it stand up in a 3-1 victory — the Royals’ second straight win over Houston.
The Royals send RHP Brady Singer (3-8, 5.42) to the mound Wednesday at 7:10.
