Late Magic Gets Kansas City 5-3 Win
The Kansas City Royals took Cleveland pitcher Matt Laverty's best shot and still were able to claim a win at Progressive Field. The final score had Kansas City getting past the Guardians, 5-3. Laverty went 6.2 innings and allowed 1 run, striking out 9. Bryan Boykin closed the door for Kansas City, picking up his 4th save of the year. At 41-24, Kansas City is in second place in the American League Central Division.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Gil Switzer to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Royals on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"The hot tub feels extra good after a solid win," said Switzer.
