KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Bobby Witt Jr. hit a two-run homer to give Michael Wacha all the support he needed as the Kansas City Royals defeated the Chicago White Sox 2-1 on Wednesday night.
It was the third straight quality start for Wacha (2-4), who allowed just three hits in seven innings, walked one and struck out five.
The Royals, who won for the 14th time in their last 16 games, lead the majors with 18 quality starts.
