Slumping Guardians Lose Again
The Kansas City Royals took on the Cleveland Guardians at Progressive Field.

Behind a fine performance from Hervé Masson, the Kansas City Royals knocked off the Cleveland Guardians, 10-4. Masson was 1-2 with a home run and 3 walks, while scoring 2 for the Royals. Pedro Fernandez, who went 6.1 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 3 runs on 4 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 6. His record now stands at 2-1. Gabriel Llanes, summoned from the bullpen, notched his 1st save.

Raul Mondesi had a key at-bat with one out in the top of the fifth for Kansas City. With the bases loaded and the Royals leading 3-2, he hit a sacrifice fly.

"We're not really clicking on anything right now," said Cleveland manager Tristan Bugbie.

The Guardians fall to 5-8 and continue to sputter in the early going.
