Kansas City Royals starter Justin Steele found his groove in his team's 5-3 win over the Toronto Blue Jays. Steele got the win, improving to 2-1. He gave up 3 hits and walked 1 over 7.2 innings. He allowed 2 runs. DL Hall got the save, his 20th in 20 chances.

Cayden Wallace dealt the Blue Jays a blow in the bottom of the third. Batting with runners on 2nd and 3rd and Kansas City leading 2-0, Wallace, who is tied for 10th in the AL in total bases with 237, hit a 3-1 fastball for a 2-run single.

"The vibe's good," said Kansas City manager Patrick Ochs. "We've got to keep it going."

The Royals, now 63-55, have won 6 in a row.
