Royals Clip Marlins, 3-2
The Kansas City Royals picked up a win at Marlins Park, knocking off the Miami Marlins, 3-2. On the mound for Kansas City was right-hander Jake Junis, who played a pivotal role in the win. Arodys Vizcaino was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 34 of 35 save opportunities. The Royals bumped their record to 77-66 with this latest triumph.

Kansas City used the bat of Nolan Arenado to get the win. The third baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Royals ahead, 3-2. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

Miami manager Pat Padula said he was "mildly disappointed" with the loss. "We had our opportunities, but we didn't take advantage of them," he said.
