Nate Robertson's scheduled start was skipped in place of Doug Fister, who leapfrogged Justin Verlander. Robertson's skipped start will likely mean that he will not make another appearance, as Josh Beckett is set to return from his finger injury that put him on the DL.
The Royals didn't even have a fighting chance; their offense was outmatched, and the pitching couldn't compensate for the difference.
JJ Hardy tripled twice in his debut! Geovany Soto, Ian Kinsler, and Miguel Cabrera all went yard in the rout.
