Hill, who set a record as the oldest player to appear in a game for the Royals, allowed three runs (one earned) on six hits in five innings. He walked two and struck out one, although he did get eight swings and misses in his 90-pitch outing. Hill's fastest pitch of the night was a 91.1 mph fastball.

Rich Hill has been a staple of Major League Baseball for more than 20 years, and the veteran pitcher isn’t hanging up his cleats just yet. Hill, 45, was called up to the Majors by the Royals on Tuesday to start against the Cubs at Wrigley Field.
