Royals Win at Cleveland, 4-2
Kansas City rode a decent outing from starter José Deleón to victory over the Cleveland Guardians. The final score was 4-2. Ron Davis closed it out for his 3rd save. Cleveland falls to 4-5.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Luis Díaz to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-0. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a big one.

Díaz called the win "a collective effort."
