Royals 2-0 Winners Over Detroit
The Detroit Tigers wasted an inspired, 7-inning effort from starter Luis Castillo, falling, 2-0, to the Kansas City Royals at Comerica Park. Aaron Nola got the win, improving to 3-0. He worked 5 innings, giving up no runs on 5 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 1. Detroit now is 15-6.

Kansas City used a clutch at-bat from Daulton Varsho to capture the win. The center fielder hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 2 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

Kansas City manager Jim H praised his team's "energy."
