A Roaring Win for the Royals! 
What an exhilarating night for the Kansas City Royals fans as we cheered our team to a 3-1 victory over the White Sox! It all began in the bottom of the first inning when our stellar shortstop, Bobby Witt Jr., broke the scoreless tie with a single to left, followed by Vinnie Pasquantino moving him to second. Maikel Garcia then stepped up and delivered an RBI single, sending Witt Jr. home and setting the tone early. 
Mighty Perez and Tactical Play 
The excitement didn't stop there! Our captain, Salvador Perez, ignited Kauffman Stadium with a solo home run in the bottom of the 4th, putting us back ahead after Lenyn Sosa's homer temporarily tied the game. The defensive coordination and swift plays ensured the White Sox couldn’t capitalize on their opportunities. The top of the 6th showed off our strategic prowess, pulling off a double play when it mattered most! 
Closing with Confidence 
In the 6th inning, Adam Frazier extended our lead with a critical double that brought Perez home! The bullpen held strong through the late innings with Zerpa, Erceg, and Estévez doing a fantastic job to shut down any comeback attempts by the Sox. Seeing Estévez close it out with three consecutive strikeouts in the 9th inning was the perfect ending to a well-fought game! The Royals put on a fine display of teamwork and resilience, ensuring a celebratory night for all of our devoted fans. Royals forever!
