Bobby Witt Jr. extended his hitting streak to a career-best 16 games with an RBI single in the fifth inning as the Royals beat the Rockies 6-2 on Thursday to finish off a doubleheader and series sweep.

After a two-hour-plus rain delay, Wednesday night’s game between the Rockies and Royals at Kauffman Stadium was postponed and will be played as the second game of a traditional doubleheader on Thursday beginning at 1:10 p.

After a disappointing 2-8 road trip that included series losses to the Cleveland Guardians, New York Yankees and Detroit Tigers, the Royals have put together a winning streak. That’s right, the Royals have now won four consecutive games. They swept the Colorado Rockies after winning both games of Thursday’s doubleheader at Kauffman Stadium.
