Royals Nip Guardians, 3-2
|
The Royals grabbed a win, 3-2, at Progressive Field, overcoming a fine effort from Cleveland pitcher Triston McKenzie. McKenzie went 7.1 innings and allowed 1 run. Kansas City pitcher Carlos Hernandez got the win. He's now 1-1. Emmanuel Clase was tagged with the loss. Kansas City, at 28-34, holds down third place in the American League Central Division.
Kansas City needed the clutch hitting of Bobby Witt Jr. to notch the win. The shortstop hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to put the Royals on top, 3-2. For the game, Witt Jr. had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.
"It was a solid team effort," said Witt Jr. after the game.
