Chicago Bats Go Silent in 3-0 Loss
Kansas City and Chicago duked it out and the Royals came out victorious.

Jorge Maldonado never let the White Sox get in a groove. The right-hander used his bread and butter, his curveball, to pitch the Royals to a win, 3-0. In 5 innings, Maldonado surrendered 4 hits, while striking out 8 and walking 1. He allowed no runs. Victor Vasquez earned the save for Kansas City, his 6th of the year.

The Royals got a big at-bat from second baseman Wilson Policarpo. For the game, Policarpo was 1-4 with a double. In the bottom of the fourth, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a run-scoring double. His 5th double of the season gave Kansas City a 1-0 lead.

"Throwing strikes was the main thing," Maldonado said.

The loss has the White Sox at 14-14.
