May Day! Royals snap nine-game skid after Hosmer, Bonifacio homer

KANSAS CITY, Mo. — The Kansas City Royals are 1-0 in May after ending April with nine consecutive defeats.

Eric Hosmer and Jorge Bonifacio hit two-run homers, and the Royals snapped their losing streak with a 6-1 victory over the Chicago White Sox on Monday night.

“You definitely want to end it,” Royals manager Ned Yost said. “You don’t want to take it any further. It’s nice to get it over with. You can kind of catch your breath and see if we can’t start a streak the other way.”

Bonifacio homered with two outs in the fourth after Alex Gordon doubled.
