Guardians Win, 4-2, Versus Kansas City
The Cleveland Guardians had to overcome a fine effort from Kansas City pitcher Antonio Aguilar to win, 4-2, at Kauffman Stadium. Aguilar went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Cleveland reliever Luis Diaz picked up the win, raising his record to 1-1. Theron Koulpasis was tagged with the loss. Picking up the save was 28-year old right-handed pitcher Brad Danforth.

Eduardo Roman came through with a big-time hit for Cleveland. The center fielder smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 4-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"Winning never gets dull," said Roman.

With the win, Cleveland upped its record to 70-67.
