Yankees Lose to Royals, 6-2
The New York Yankees and Kansas City Royals brought some excitement to Yankee Stadium.

The New York Yankees went down to defeat to Chris Sale and his Kansas City teammates. The final score was 6-2 in favor of the Royals. Sale got the win, improving to 3-1. He allowed 6 hits and walked 2 over 7 innings. Sale allowed 2 earned runs.

The Yankees had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Royals going into the top of the second inning. That changed quickly when the 25-year old left fielder Jesse Winker came to the plate. Winker hit a run-scoring single on a 0-1 fastball from New York hurler Ryan Yarbrough. It was Winker's 25th hit of the year.

"I felt we were ready to go," said Kansas City manager Bryce Shuck. "Our pregame was pretty good."

The Yankees fall to 10-10 and continue their uneasy start to the 2019 season.
