The Kansas City Royals are starting to embrace quite the never-say-quit mentality. Trailing in the seventh inning? No need to worry. Game tied in the eight? Perfect position. Jarrod Dyson delivered an infield single with the bases loaded and two outs on Saturday, and stingy closer Greg Holland preserved the Royals' scrappy 4-3 victory over Oakland with a perfect ninth inning that gave Kansas City its first win over the Athletics this season.
