Royals Beat Yankees in 11
Despite a great performance by New York 2019 third baseman Giovanny Urshela, the Kansas City 2014 Royals defeated the Yankees by the score of 8-7 at Kauffman Stadium. Urshela went 3-4 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The Royals are off to a tough start, getting just their 3rd win in 8 games.

Alex Gordon clinched the win with a run-scoring walk in the bottom of the 11th. In the game, the Kansas City 2014 left fielder was 2 for 5 with a home run and a walk, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.

"Our team showed some spunk," said Gordon.
