Loss to Royals Extends Cleveland (AZL) Losing Streak
The 2110 season is getting uglier for Cleveland (AZL).

Kansas City (AZL) Royals starter Joel Horton found his groove in his team's 8-3 win over the Cleveland (AZL) Guardians. The Royals now own a record of 25-17.

The Royals got a big boost from second baseman Jesus Bucio who had a run-scoring ground out in the bottom of the first inning off Guardians hurler Jarred Grigg. It was his 4th RBI of the season and put Kansas City (AZL) on top, 1-0.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Cleveland (AZL) manager Jesse Hansen.
