Guardians Lose to Royals, 6-3
Kansas City parlayed a decent outing from starter Scott Bowling into a solid win over the Cleveland Guardians. The final score was 6-3. Kansas City has now won 4 straight.

Jon Turner had a big 2-run double for the Royals in the top of the first inning. With Kansas City leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a changeup from 26-year old left-handed pitcher Dustin Brace and swatted a double to left. It was his 12th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 4-0.

"I'm happy we won," said Bowling. "That's first and foremost. My goal is for the team to win the day I pitch, however it's done."
