Kansas City Wins at Home to Narrow Series Deficit to 2-1
The Kansas City Royals have closed some of the gap between themselves and the series-leading Tampa Bay Rays, winning, 6-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Royals designated hitter Zion Bogans went 1-2 with a double, 2 walks, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. The win cuts the deficit facing the Royals to 2-1 in the best-of-7 World Series.

A key moment came with two out in the bottom of the second. That's when Bogans hit a slider from Glen Goffner for a 2-run double, putting Kansas City up, 3-0.

Bogans told a Kansas City Today reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City.
