Kansas City Beats Chicago in Extra Innings
Extra innings were needed to determine a winner at Guaranteed Rate Field.

The Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox, 6-3, at Guaranteed Rate Field. The win was due in part to left fielder Austin Meadows, who went 3-5 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Felix Bautista snagged the win in relief. In 2 innings, the right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits. He's now 1-2 on the season. Luis Frias earned the save, his 1st, for the Royals.

Meadows had a game-changing home run in the top of the 12th. On a 0-1 fastball from Jeff Brigham, he banged a 2-run home run to right, giving the Royals a 5-3 lead. It was the 2nd home run of the year for Meadows.

"We did a lot of things right," said Meadows.

Kansas City is off to a sluggish start, getting just their 6th win in 16 games.
