Adams Excels, But Indians Win
The Cleveland Indians had to overcome a big game from Kansas City first baseman Matt Adams to leave Kauffman Stadium with a 9-8 victory. Adams hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 times and driving in 5. Picking up the save was David Robertson, his 8th. Cleveland, now 10-2, is playing great baseball to start the year.

It could have been a different outcome for Cleveland, had it not been for Christian Yelich, the 27-year old center fielder . Yelich contributed a 2-run single in the top of the eighth inning to put Cleveland up, 8-5.

"What a game," said Yelich. "We needed every last run."
