Justin Verlander victimized by three home runs

Justin Verlander dropped to 12-7 Tuesday night versus the Kansas City Royals. Verlander allowed five runs (three earned) on four hits including three home runs and struck out six Royals.
Fantasy Impact:
The big righty had not allowed more than three runs in a game since June 26th when he allowed eight to Cleveland. Chalk this one up as a rare misstep in an otherwise excellent season from Verlander.
