Cleveland Gets 6-3 Win
|
Despite a fine performance by right fielder Greg Lópes, the Kansas City Royals lost to the Cleveland Guardians, 6-3. Lópes was 4-4 with 4 singles. Sandor Visser, who finished 2nd in the AL in innings pitched with 217.2 last year, was the winner. He's now 7-13. The loser was Esteban Muñóz. Luis Aguiler recorded the save, making him 13 for 22.
Ernie Jones was 2 for 4 with 2 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 times for Cleveland. The two-time All-Star had a key at-bat in the top of the fifth. With one out and runners on 1st and 2nd, he broke a 2-2 tie with a run-scoring single off Esteban Muñóz. It was his 143rd hit of the season.
"I just tried to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Jones.
Cleveland is now 73-88, Kansas City 69-92.
