KANSAS CITY -- Yan Gomes reclaimed the lead for the Indians against the Royals on Tuesday when he blasted a grand slam to left field in the sixth inning.
The inning began with a walk to Edwin Encarnacion, Brandon Guyer getting hit by a pitch and Yonder Alonso reaching on an infield single. Royals starter Danny Duffy, nearing 100 pitches, then left a changeup high and in for Gomes, who turned on it to give Cleveland a 6-4 lead.
The blast traveled an estimated 369 feet, according to Statcast™, and left Gomes' bat with an exit velocity of 104.
