Daniel Vitriago never let Los Angeles get something going. The Kansas City left-hander commanded his curveball in pitching the Royals to a 3-1 win. Vitriago, now 2-1, was the winner. In 5 innings, he gave up 1 hit, while striking out 5, walking 4, and allowing no runs. Kansas City now owns a record of 58-69.

The Royals got a big hit from first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino. In the bottom of the fifth, Pasquantino pounded a 2-run home run to right. His 17th home run of the season put the Royals ahead, 3-0.

"We put some tough at-bats on some tough pitches," said Kansas City manager Patrick Ochs.
