Maikel Garcia

Kansas City Royals Manager Matt Quatraro said after Game 2 of his team’s ALDS matchup with the New York Yankees that Maikel Garcia was “locked in,” and he would certainly be right. With four hits on the night, the third baseman became just the fourth Royals player in franchise history with a four-hit performance in the Postseason (Garcia’s cousin Alcides Escobar, Lorenzo Cain, and George Brett). The 24-year-old’s efforts powered the Royals to a 4-2 win and tied the series at one game apiece.
