KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Ryan O'Hearn hit a game-ending home run to lift the Royals to a 6-5 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night.

O'Hearn sent the first pitch he saw from Zac Reininger in the ninth inning over the fence in right field after a seesaw final three innings.

Tigers' starter Daniel Norris grooved Soler a 2-2 fastball in the third inning and the Royals' slugger didn't miss. The three-run shot broke a tie with Mike Moustakas, who set the previous record with 38 home runs in 2017.
