Guardians Rally to Nose Past Kansas City
Kansas City got a big-time effort from pitcher Francisco Rodriguez, but it wasn't enough to keep the Cleveland Guardians from winning the game, 2-1. Rodriguez threw 7.0 innings of 4-hit ball for the losing team. Getting the save was Jason Beitey, his 3rd. Cleveland, now 9-4, has gotten their season off to a good start.

Cleveland used the timely hitting of Aaron Hill to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the eighth inning to put the Guardians on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning never gets dull," said Hill.
