Royals Lose to Guardians in Walk Off
Rick O'Reilly was instrumental in his team's 8-5 triumph over the Kansas City Royals. The left fielder went 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3 for the Cleveland Guardians. Katsumi Omura snagged the win in relief. In 2 innings, the left-hander allowed no runs on no hits. He's now 9-8 on the season. Cleveland's record now stands at 65-86, placing them 4th in the American League Central Division.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the ninth. With no one out, O'Reilly hit a changeup from Joe Jordahl for a 3-run home run. The Guardians, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Ah, the sweet taste of victory," O'Reilly crowed after the game.
