The Royals had to overcome a fine effort from Texas pitcher Jose Quintana to grab a narrow 4-3 win at Globe Life Park in Arlington. Quintana went 7.1 innings and allowed 1 earned run. The winner was Carl Edwards Jr. in relief. His record improves to 1-2. Anthony Swarzak took the loss. Adam Ottavino locked down his 1st save.

The Royals got a big at-bat from pinch hitter Lonnie Chisenhall. For the game, Chisenhall was 1-1 with a home run. In the top of the tenth, with the bases empty, he stroked a solo home run. His 6th home run of the season gave Kansas City a 4-3 lead.

Chisenhall called the triumph "a good team win."

Kansas City is now 23-30.
