Yost reaches goal of winning 1,000 games as manager

KANSAS CITY -- It has been a rough homestand for the Royals, but Saturday was a time for manager Ned Yost to pause and reflect on reaching a goal that he established for himself long ago.

By snapping a five-game losing streak with a 3-2 win over the White Sox, the Royals handed Yost the 1,000th victory of his Major League managing career with Milwaukee and Kansas City.

Yost now has 543 wins with the Royals after getting 457 with the Brewers.
