Make what you want out of it, but the Royals are ending the season with a bang. Their 10-1 victory Tuesday over the Minnesota Twins gave them successive games of scoring 10 or more runs for the first time in more than four years.

Viva Los Royals indeed. The Royals turned their annual Hispanic celebration into an all-comers party on a beautiful late-summer Tuesday evening by demolishing Oakland 11-3 at Kauffman Stadium.

Zack Greinke picked up his first victory in nearly a month and Wilson Betemit homered and drove in four runs to help the Kansas City Royals beat the Oakland Athletics 11-3 on Tuesday night.

It only added injury to insult Tuesday when first baseman Billy Butler aggravated a hand injury in the Royals 10-3 loss to the Minnesota Twins.

More bullpen problems surfaced Saturday night for the Royals to chew on in their 6-4 loss to the Detroit Tigers at Kauffman Stadium.
