Michael Fulmer was locked and loaded, helping the Tampa Bay Rays beat the Kansas City Royals, 9-1. The winning pitcher was Fulmer, now 6-10. He tossed 6 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 4. The win for the Rays raised their record to 54-47.

Tampa Bay used the bat of Kevin Kiermaier to get the win. The center fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rays ahead, 3-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"We were able to get some things going offensively," said Kiermaier.
