The Cleveland Guardians picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, downing the Kansas City Royals, 4-3. On the mound for Cleveland was left-hander Nick Wise, who played a pivotal role in the win. The Guardians improved their record to 70-90 by beating Kansas City.

Alex Grant, who is on pace for 79 RBI this season, had a direct impact on the outcome. Grant contributed a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the top of the fourth inning to put Cleveland up, 2-1.

"Nick made some big pitches when he needed to," said Guardians manager Mike Nichols.
