The Kansas City Royals beat the Cleveland Guardians by a score of 12-5. Kansas City catcher Mike Meyerhoff deserved the lion's share of the credit.

He struck out 4 in 5 innings. John Hall earned the save for Kansas City, his 1st.

Mike Jaquez swatted a 3-run home run for Kansas City in the bottom of the first. The designated hitter went 2 for 5 for the game, including 1 home run and 1 double. He scored 1 run and batted in 3.

"You know, at the end of the day, it's about who scores the most runs," said Kansas City manager Chris Stephan.
