Royals Lose to Twins, 8-0
Kansas City had no answer for Minnesota Twins hurler Cole Irvin, who overwhelmed Royals hitters as the Twins coasted to victory, 8-0. The Twins raised their record to 19-35.

Yohel Pozo drove in one run for Minnesota. The 26-year old catcher had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Hunter Greene. It was his 8th RBI of the season.

"We didn't pitch good, and when you don't pitch good, you lose," said Kansas City manager Nathan Feuerer.
