Home runs, rain fall from the sky in 7-0 loss to Indians

Chris Young pitching and a three hour rain delay makes for rough afternoon.

Chris Young gave up four home runs and the Royals mustered just four hits as the Indians shellacked them 7-0 in the series finale. The Royals were swept in a four-game series for the first time since May 23-26, 2013 against the Angels. They fall to 1.5 games back of the first place Indians as they head to Baltimore.

The Indians got going in the first inning when Jason Kipnis tripled to deep center. He scored on a sac fly from Francisco Lindor, his fifth RBI of the series.
