Guardians Best Royals in Pitching Duel
Cleveland starter Ben Sedlacek put a stranglehold on the Kansas City offense. The right-hander had complete command of his fastball in leading the Guardians to a 2-1 win. Katsumi Omura locked down his 32nd save. Cleveland, at 59-80, holds down 4th place in the American League Central Division.

The Royals had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Guardians going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the two-time All-Star Nick Ogle came to the plate. Ogle hit a run-scoring double on a 2-2 curveball from Kansas City hurler John Brooks. It was Ogle's 35th double of the year.

"Nervous? No," said Ogle. "It was my time to shine."
