The Kansas City Royals topped the Oakland Athletics by the score of 13-5, with the largest share of the credit going to third baseman Nolan Arenado. Arenado belted 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3 for the Royals. Dereck Rodriguez got the win, improving to 11-11. He held the Athletics to 1 earned run on 4 hits over 6 innings, while striking out 5 and walking 1. Kansas City is now 82-70.

An important at-bat for the Royals came in the top of the fifth, when second baseman Jurickson Profar stroked a solo home run. That made the score 3-1 in favor of Kansas City. For the day, Profar went 2-4 with a home run, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 3 times.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Bryce Shuck said.
