Hill Helps Guardians Beat Royals, 7-3
Cleveland and Kansas City got after it at Kauffman Stadium.

The Cleveland Guardians knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 7-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Aaron Hill was a big reason Cleveland won. The third baseman was 3-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Early on, the Guardians, at 10-4, have excelled.

Hill contributed a big hit, a 3-run home run, for Cleveland in the top of the third. With his team trailing 2-1, Hill took a fastball from Hector Perez and stroked the home run to center. His 2nd home run of the season allowed the Guardians to leap in front, 4-2.

"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Hill.
