Progressive Field was the site of a competitive game between the Kansas City Royals and Cleveland Guardians.

The Cleveland Guardians beat the Kansas City Royals, 5-3, at Progressive Field. Giancarlo Stanton was 1-3 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The slugging right fielder was a menace to Kansas City all day. The winning pitcher was Kyle Bradish. He tossed 88 pitches over 7 innings, allowing 3 runs on 6 hits.

Cleveland catcher Ryan Jeffers contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a curveball to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 21st hit of the season and put the Guardians ahead, 5-3.

"We were the better team," crowed Stanton.

The Cleveland win streak is now 3 games.
