Lugo goes the distance in 4-1 win to complete sweep over Chicago

Seth Lugo gave the Royals their first complete game win in four years, as the Royals swept the White Sox with a 4-1 win on Sunday afternoon.

Lugo was in command for nearly the entire afternoon. Although he gave up an infield single to Tommy Pham to begin the game, Pham was erased trying to steal, and Lugo retired the next 14 hitters in a row. That ended in the sixth, when he hit Nicky Lopez to begin the inning. Lopez advanced to second on a ground out, then scored on an RBI single by Pham to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead.
