Royals Prevail, 4-2, Over Houston

Kansas City rode a good effort from starter Jacob Nix to beat the Houston Astros at Kauffman Stadium. The final score was 4-2. Nix got the win, improving to 2-3. He allowed 5 hits and walked 2 over 6 innings. Nix allowed 2 runs. The save was credited to Carl Edwards Jr., his 1st.
Anthony Rizzo came through for Kansas City when he hit a 3-run home run in the bottom of the fifth. With runners on 1st and 2nd, he hit a first pitch fastball to right field, staking his team to a 4-2 lead.
