One significant plate appearance for Kansas City came with no one out in the bottom of the seventh inning. Royals third baseman Nolan Arenado drew a walk, which helped Kansas City go on to win.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Toronto manager Ryan Hicks. "But we decided not to take it."
