The Kansas City Royals evened their American League Division Series matchup with the New York Yankees after a 4-2 win on Monday.
New York's offense was sluggish in the loss, picking up just seven hits. The Yankees got some life down three runs in the bottom of the ninth after Jazz Chisholm Jr. hit a leadoff home run, but it wasn't enough to spark a comeback with Kansas City still up by two runs.
The Royals did all their scoring in the fourth inning, starting with a solo homer from Salvador Pérez. From there, Kansas City made it a three-run lead with three RBI singles, a deficit that proved to be too much for the struggling Yankees' offense to overcome.
