Royals Handled by Pittsburgh, 5-1
The Pittsburgh Pirates picked up a win at PNC Park, knocking off the Kansas City Royals, 5-1. On the mound for Pittsburgh was right-hander Mitch Keller, who played a pivotal role in the win. Keller, now 13-10, was the winner. In 7.1 innings, he gave up 3 hits, while striking out 7, walking 2, and allowing 1 run. Pittsburgh has won 4 consecutive games.

Pittsburgh took a 5-1 lead on Ke'Bryan Hayes's 8th triple of the season. The bases-clearing triple, which Hayes hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Kansas City pitcher Alex Reyes visibly frustrated.

"Nice to see our side come away with the win," Hayes said after the game.
