Junis pitches first career CG, dominates Tigers

KANSAS CITY -- Mark down another solid outing from Royals right-hander Jakob Junis, who continues to leave a midseason slump in his rear-view mirror.

Junis continued his mastery over the Tigers this season, improving to 4-0 against Detroit after going nine innings in a 6-2 victory Tuesday at Kauffman Stadium. It was Junis' first complete game of his career. It also was the Royals' first nine-inning complete game since Jason Vargas did it against Cleveland on June 2.
