Kansas City and Texas duked it out and the Royals came out victorious.

Starting pitcher Jakob Junis was a major factor in the 4-1 Kansas City Royals triumph over the Texas Rangers. The Rangers, at 19-33, have lost 4 straight games.

The Rangers had trouble solving Junis, who surrendered 1 run on 5 hits over 8.2 innings.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Junis.
