Losing Streak Continues for Rangers with 6-0 Loss to Royals
The Kansas City Royals downed the Texas Rangers, 6-0, at Globe Life Field. Stellar pitching by Aaron Nola had a lot to do with it. The right-hander, who is tied for 9th in the AL in wins with 7, handcuffed his opponent all game. Texas is in the throes of a losing streak which has reached 9 games.

Kansas City used the hitting of Willy Adames to pick up the win. The shortstop clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Royals on top, 3-0. For the game, Adames had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"For the most part, I didn't think they knew what was coming," said Nola.
