Kansas City Bats Go Silent in 5-0 Loss
Toronto used a superb performance from starting pitcher Pablo Lopez to down the Kansas City Royals, 5-0. Lopez yielded no runs over 6.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 4 hits, walked 2, and struck out 7. His record improves to 3-2. Toronto goes to 11-15.

James Outman had a big solo home run for the Blue Jays in the top of the third inning. With Toronto leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a fastball from Aaron Nola, who is the 2023 Cy Young Award winner, and punished it. The result was his 2nd home run of the season, which put the Blue Jays on top, 2-0.

"This level of focus will win us a lot of ballgames," Lopez said after the game.
