The Kansas City Royals wasted an impressive 8-inning effort from starter Chris Sale, falling 2-1 to the Tampa Bay Rays at Kauffman Stadium. Tampa Bay reliever Caleb Thielbar picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Carl Edwards Jr. took the loss. Tampa Bay has a record of 17-14.

Tampa Bay needed the clutch hitting of Xander Bogaerts to notch the win. The shortstop hammered a solo home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Rays on top, 2-1. For the game, Bogaerts had 1 home run and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"I just try to see the ball and put a good swing on it," said Bogaerts.
