Royals Find a Way to Win
The Kansas City Royals did just enough to sneak past the Chicago White Sox, 8-7, at U.S. Cellular Field. Kansas City second baseman Antonio Ventura, in particular, had a standout performance. The Royals win now puts them at 20-23.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Manuel Gutierrez? The Kansas City designated hitter had a run-scoring double in the top of the 13th inning to put the Royals on top, 8-7. For the game, Gutierrez had 2 doubles and 1 single in 6 at-bats.

"This was one of those 'not to be denied' games," said Kansas City field general Connor Gould.
