Royals Win, 5-4, Versus Cleveland
Kansas City registered a win at Kauffman Stadium by beating the Cleveland Indians, 5-4. Pitcher Mark Gubicza was one reason why the Royals triumphed. The Royals lead the American League Central Division by 2 games.

An inflection point occurred with one out in the bottom of the eighth. That's when Royals catcher Salvador Perez hit a screwball from Stan Coveleski for a 2-run single. Just like that, Kansas City was up, 5-4.

Perez said his team "played with focus and determination."
