Royals Score Late, Upend Reds, 8-6
The Kansas City Royals weathered a fine game by Cincinnati right fielder Jesús Sánchez to upend the Reds, 8-6, at Great American Ball Park. Sánchez went 2-4 with 2 home runs and was hit by a pitch, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Daniel Coulombe got the save, his 1st in 3 chances. The Reds, now 64-61, have lost 4 straight.

Matt Chapman came through with a big-time hit for Kansas City. The third baseman smacked a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to give his team the lead, 7-5. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Chapman.
