KANSAS CITY— Indians right-hander Carlos Carrasco threw seven innings and the offense hammered Royals starter Danny Duffy early en route to a 10-3 victory on Wednesday night at Kauffman Stadium.Carrasco, staked at one point to a 6-0 lead, put it on cruise control, allowing five hits and three runs while striking out six and keeping the Royals at a safe distance.“He’s tough because he uses his changeup well,” Royals first baseman Eric Hosmer said. “You may get one pitch during an at-bat. But he has that 97-mph fastball and it makes it tough.”“I thought he did really well,” Indians manager Terry Francona said of Carrasco.
