Detroit Tigers (17-40) 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 4 1
Kansas City Royals (27-28) 0 0 1 0 0 0 3 0 X 4 3 0
Royals Stay Hot, Beat Tigers, 4-1
The Kansas City Royals went home winners at Kauffman Stadium, thanks in large part to starter Zack Wheeler. Wheeler stifled the Detroit Tigers, enabling Kansas City to grab the 4-1 win. The Royals, now 27-28, have won 6 in a row.

Kansas City took a 4-1 lead on Jared Triolo's 12th double of the season. The bases-clearing double, which Triolo hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Detroit pitcher Ramon Perez visibly frustrated.

"Whenever we hold the other team to one run," said Royals manager Fraser Stewart, "I like our chances."
