Mike Yastrzemski, Vinnie Pasquantino and Maikel Garcia homered to power the Kansas City Royals past the Texas Rangers 4-3 on Monday night.<\/p>\n
Michael Wacha (8-9) allowed two runs and nine hits in 5 2\/3 innings for the win. He struck out three, walked none and permitted two earned runs or fewer for the seventh straight start.<\/p>\n
Carlos Est\u00e9vez set a career high with his American League-leading 32nd save.<\/p>\n
Yastrzemski’s shot to right-center was the 10th leadoff homer of his career and third with the Royals, matching a franchise record for any month. Kansas City acquired Yastrzemski from San Francisco at the July 31 trade deadline.<\/p>\n
Pasquantino hit a two-run drive over the right-field wall to give the Royals a 3-1 lead in the third. Bobby Witt Jr. was aboard on a leadoff walk.<\/p>\n
Garcia’s homer in the fifth went over the left-field wall, just inside the foul pole. Kansas City has homered in eight consecutive games, tying a season high.<\/p>\n
The Rangers scored on RBI singles by Jonah Heim in the second and Evan Carter in the sixth. Rowdy Tellez had an RBI groundout in the eighth.<\/p>\n
Jack Leiter (7-7) gave up three runs and six hits in 3 2\/3 innings. He struck out five and walked three.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
