Royals Earn 5-4 Win Versus White Sox
Kansas City designated hitter Jorge Soler was a significant contributor in his team's 5-4 triumph over the Chicago White Sox. He went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2 for Kansas City. The Royals go to 29-31, putting them third in the American League Central Division.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Kansas City trailing 4-3, Ryan O'Hearn hit a fastball from Alex Colome for a 2-run home run, giving the Royals the walk-off win.

"Was I getting worried?" said Royals manager Mike Matheny. "Nope." He added, with a wink, "There was never a doubt in my mind."
