KANSAS CITY, Mo. -- Royals left fielder Edward Olivares made quite the impression on Sunday. A smoking impression on the scoreboard in left field. Olivares hit a 452-foot solo homer in the eighth inning of Kansas City's 3-2 win against the Washington Nationals that damaged a scoreboard at Kauffman Stadium. The massive drive darkened a small strip on the left side of the scoreboard, and smoke was seen coming from the area where the ball landed. The 27-year-old Olivares connected against Chad Kuhl, tying the score at 2. It was his fourth homer of the season.
