Clutch Hitting Delivers Win for Royals
Getting an impressive start from Esteban Ramos, Kansas City beat Texas by the score of 5-2. Kansas City reliever Ty Tice got the win, raising his record to 3-1. Jared Keefer was tagged with the loss. Dauris Valdez picked up the save, his 4th.

The game was at a stalemate until left fielder Sung-il Yoon came to bat in the top of the eighth. Facing Texas pitcher Pierce Johnson, he hit a first pitch fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Kansas City on top, 3-2.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Ramos said after the game.

Kansas City is now 48-24, 9 games up in the American League Central Division.
