White Sox Edged, 6-3, by Kansas City
A 3-RBI performance from designated hitter Mike Zuanich, who finished 4th in the AL in hits with 190 last year, led the Kansas City Royals to a win over the Chicago White Sox, 6-3. Kansas City pitcher Josh Kay got the win. He's now 1-0. Pablo Menchaca was tagged with the loss. Henry Pena earned the save, his 1st.

Zuanich had a game-changing home run in the top of the eighth. On a 1-2 fastball from Pablo Menchaca, he banged a 3-run home run to left, giving the Royals a 6-3 lead. It was the 1st home run of the year for Zuanich.

"Every time I go up there, I try and hit a ball hard," said Zuanich.

The loss has the White Sox at 1-1.
