The major leagues' worst team reached a new low: The Kansas City Royals couldn't even follow a lineup.

An embarrassing mistake negated a leadoff hit, and the Royals managed only two hits that actually counted against former teammate Paul Byrd in a 5-0 home loss to the Los Angeles Angels Friday night.

David DeJesus singled leading off for the Royals - but he was not supposed to be up. So when Angel Berroa - listed as the leadoff batter on the official lineup card - approached the plate to bat second, Angels manager Mike Scioscia hopped out of the dugout.

The umpires huddled a few minutes, Berroa was called out, and DeJesus was required to bat again. He flied out, and the Royals didn't have another hit until Matt Stairs singled leading off the fifth.

"Checking the lineup card doesn't take much energy to do," Royals manager Buddy Bell said. "The bottom line is, I didn't double-check the official lineup card with the card on the (dugout) wall. It's totally, totally my responsibility. It was inexcusable and irresponsible."
