The Royals managed to score just one run, the fourth time in the last eight games they have scored one run or less, in a 5-1 loss to the White Sox on Saturday afternoon. Jordan Lyles gave up all five runs in five innings of work, picking up his league-leading eighth loss of the year.
The Royals got off to a good start with Salvador Perez slamming a home run into the left field stands. He also did a good bit of chirping to the White Sox dugout while rounding the bases. It was part of a three-hit day for Salvy - he would later add a single and double, leaving him just a triple short of the cycle.
