Lopez HR helps KC beat Tigers 7-3 in 1st MLB game in Omaha
Nicky Lopez hit his first major league homer in the stadium where he played college ball, Homer Bailey allowed two hits in six shutout innings and the Kansas City Royals beat the Detroit Tigers 7-3 Thursday night in the first big league regular season...
Bradford Doolittle ESPN Staff Writer
Cool factoid circulating in the press box at TD Ameritrade Park: When the Royals' Nicky Lopez played at Creighton, he went homerless in his first 74 games here. He then homered in his 75th -- and last -- game at the venue as a collegian. Then, in his first game back here as a pro, he homered in his first at-bat, again curling one inside the right-field foul pole.

Nicky Lopez went deep for the Royals off Cy Young candidate Matthew Boyd. Great moment early in this contest to put Kansas City up 1-0. Lopez played his college ball right here TD Ameritrade Park for Creighton. That was his first big league home run.

Alex Gordon has a nerve issue with his back after getting plunked last night, so that's why he's absent from the Royals' lineup for tonight's game in Omaha. Ned Yost said he wrestled with the decision to hold Gordon out and apologized to fans coming out to see the native Nebraskan play in the first-ever regular-season game in the Cornhusker state.
