Royals score seven in ninth to win 8-7 over White Sox

Bonkers.

Ventura rolled through the first inning, but the White Sox strung together three singles to open the scoring in the second. Tyler Saladino then plated three with a home run into left, putting Chicago up 4-0 after two.

Things didn't get better from there. Ventura yielded a two-run home run in the fourth to Avisail Garcia, putting the game presumably out of reach. An error by Omar Infante allowed another run to cross in the fifth.

Ventura's final line was seven innings, nine hits, seven runs, six earned, no walks, and four strikeouts.
