Cole Ragans expressed his excitement and relief to return from a groin injury during the Kansas City Royalsâ 3-0 victory against the Chicago White Sox. Despite only missing one game, Ragans emphasized how inspiring it was to watch his teammates excel. In his comeback performance, he struck out 11 batters in just five innings while his fastball reached 98 mph. Remarkably, he reported no complications post-game, indicating he is close to returning to peak form after a previous challenging outing. His return contributed to the Royals' impressive stretch, winning 12 out of 14 games.
Watching these guys every day is incredible. What the other starters have done, watching them, you just want to build off of it, Ragans said.
It's just like another day at the office for him. So it's great to have him back and see what he does, said Royals shortstop Bobby Witt Jr.
Overall, felt really good. Wasn't any certain pitches where it felt bad or anything, Ragans said.
I feel like I'm in a good spot. Really close to where I want to be, Ragans stated.
