However, with Chicago ahead 2-0 and Steven Wilson on the mound in the seventh, Adam Frazier doubled and India sent a drive that landed in the left-field fountains.<\/p>\n<p>In the eighth, Bobby Witt Jr. singled to extend his hitting streak against Chicago to 18 games, eventually stole second and scored on Garcia&#8217;s ground-ball single into right field off Grant Taylor (0-3) for a 3-2 Kansas City lead. Salvador Perez followed with a long RBI single off the center-field wall and Frazier hit a two-run homer to right for the Royals, who have outscored the White Sox 71-17 during the franchise&#8217;s longest home winning streak against a single opponent.<\/p>\n<p>Rookie Ryan Bergert allowed six hits, two runs &#8212; one earned &#8212; while striking out seven in 5 1\/3 innings for the Royals, who are amid a 13-5 home stretch.<\/p>\n<p>The White Sox wasted no time getting to Bergert, who delivered a pitch Lenyn Sosa sent well over the wall in left-center field for a 1-0 lead just two batters into the contest. Chicago&#8217;s chance at adding a run in the second ended when Edgar Quero was thrown out at the plate by India&#8217;s relay throw off Chase Meidroth&#8217;s two-out double to right.<\/p>\n<p>Martin, meanwhile, didn&#8217;t allow a runner until back-to-back walks opened the Royals&#8217; fourth. But, he got out of the jam thanks to Vinnie Pasquantino&#8217;s 4-6-3 double play.<\/p>\n<p>Chicago eventually made it 2-0 in the sixth. After left fielder Frazier misplayed and dropped Andrew Benintendi&#8217;s fly ball, Quero followed with an RBI single.<\/p>\n<p>Lucas Erceg (5-3) allowed one hit in one inning for the win.<\/p>\n<p>The White Sox have lost four straight and 11 of 13.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><script>\n\t!function(f,b,e,v,n,t,s)\n\t{if(f.fbq)return;n=f.fbq=function(){n.callMethod?\n\tn.callMethod.apply(n,arguments):n.queue.push(arguments)};\n\tif(!f._fbq)f._fbq=n;n.push=n;n.loaded=!0;n.version='2.0';\n\tn.queue=[];t=b.createElement(e);t.async=!0;\n\tt.src=v;s=b.getElementsByTagName(e)[0];\n\ts.parentNode.insertBefore(t,s)}(window, document,'script',\n\t'https:\/\/connect.facebook.net\/en_US\/fbevents.js');\n\tfbq('init', '1324276914788316');\n\tfbq('track', 'PageView');\n\t<\/script><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yardbarker.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After Jonathan India clubbed a tying, two-run homer in the seventh inning, Maikel Garcia broke the tie with a two-out, RBI single during the four-run eighth, and the Kansas City Royals swept their three-game series with a 14th consecutive home win over the Chicago White Sox, 6-2 on Sunday.
