Royals Beat Toronto, 3-2
In a tight tilt between Kansas City and Toronto, pitcher Billy Deckard was a key contributor. The right-hander earned accolades for his standout performance in the 3-2 Royals win. Kansas City reliever Jamie Morris picked up the win, upping his record to 3-3. Kliment Strasky was saddled with the loss. Amari Mackie sewed up the save, his 10th.

The game was at a stalemate until right fielder Jorge Casasola came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Toronto pitcher Kliment Strasky, he hit a full count fastball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Kansas City on top, 3-2.

"It takes a lot of things to win a ballgame," said Kansas City manager Felipe Vazquez. "It's usually not just one thing."

Kansas City bumps their record to 54-24 with the win.
