Erik Ellsworth dealt the Royals a blow in the bottom of the second. Batting with the bases loaded and Houston leading 1-0, Ellsworth, who finished 4th in the AL in hits with 176 last year, hit a 1-1 fastball for a 2-run single.

"There's a lot of good karma around our club," said winning manager Zeb Currier.
