Game Summary
Kansas City Royals defeated the Los Angeles Angels 7-6. The Royals won behind a huge night from Jac Caglianone (3-for-4, HR, 5 RBI) and strong run production from Nolan Schanuel (2-for-4, 2B, 4 RBI) and Michael Massey (3-for-4, HR, 2 RBI). Kansas City matched Los Angeles’ 10 hits and benefited from one Angel error. The turning point came in the top of the seventh: Caglianone’s single scored Bobby Witt Jr. to tie the game and, after he advanced on a throwing error, Massey’s RBI single put Kansas City ahead for good. Alex Lange was credited with the win and Steven Cruz worked a scoreless inning to record the save.
