Tigers Win at Kansas City, 8-2
With right fielder George Springer leading the charge, the Detroit Tigers defeated the Kansas City Royals, 8-2, at Kauffman Stadium. Springer, who is tied for 7th in the AL in triples with 2, went 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Mike Clevinger was the winning pitcher. Over 7.2 innings, he allowed 1 run on 6 hits, with 4 walks and 5 strikeouts. The Tigers bumped their record to 18-15 with this latest triumph.

In the bottom of the eighth, Jurickson Profar stood in the box, looking for a pitch to hammer. The Royals were trailing 8-1, but had the bases loaded. That's when Charlie Morton made a terrific pitch and Profar struck out. Gone was the dream of a Kansas City comeback.
