DETROIT (AP) \u2014 Vinnie Pasquantino and Maikel Garcia homered to help the Kansas City Royals beat the Detroit Tigers 10-8 on Sunday.<\/p>\n

The Royals improved to 28-14 in series finales this season. They are 9-4 when they are in danger of being swept.<\/p>\n

John Schreiber (3-2) pitched 1 1\/3 innings for the win, and Carlos Est\u00e9vez handled the ninth for his 34th save.<\/p>\n

Riley Greene hit his 31st homer for the Tigers, who had won five straight and nine of 10. Jack Flaherty (7-13) was tagged for eight runs in five-plus innings.<\/p>\n

The Royals scored six runs in the third inning after Flaherty retired the first two batters.<\/p>\n

Luke Maile singled and scored on Mike Yastrzemski’s double. Bobby Witt Jr. made it 2-1 with an RBI single, and Pasquantino followed with a two-run homer. Garcia singled, Salvador Perez drove in Kansas City’s fifth run and Adam Frazier made it seven straight hits with an RBI double.<\/p>\n

Jahmai Jones hit a three-run double for Detroit in the fourth, and the Tigers added three more runs in the fifth. Wenceel P\u00e9rez homered, and Zach McKinstry\u2019s two-out RBI single made it 7-6 Detroit.<\/p>\n

Flaherty departed after the Royals started the sixth with a pair of hits, and Tyler Holton allowed a two-run single to Kyle Isbel. Holton’s wild pitch allowed Isbel to score Kansas City’s ninth run.<\/p>\n

Garcia homered in the seventh to make it 10-7, but Spencer Torkelson answered with a solo shot in the bottom of the inning.<\/p>\n

Key moment<\/h2>\n

McKinstry had a chance for a tying two-run homer in the seventh, but Frazier made the catch against the right-field wall.<\/p>\n

Key stat<\/h2>\n

All nine Royals starters had at least one hit and scored at least one run.<\/p>\n
