Arenado Lifts Royals to 9-2 Triumph
The Kansas City Royals downed the Chicago White Sox, 9-2, at Guaranteed Rate Field. The Royals were led by Nolan Arenado. He went 2-4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. Kansas City starter Chris Sale was credited with the win after throwing 92 pitches over 7 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. At 2-0, the Royals have played well so far.

Kansas City used a well-timed hit by Jurickson Profar to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals ahead, 3-2. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Arenado told the Kansas City Times.
