The Royals claimed a 2-1 victory over the White Sox with MJ Melendez breaking an eighth-inning tie, and Salvador Perez delivering a key RBI double early in the game.
Melendez and Perez are standout performers for the Royals, ranking among AL leaders in slugging, homers, and OPS.
Melendez reflected on his past struggles with pressure at the plate, mentioning adjustments made and offseason work to improve performance.
"We made a lot of quick outs... Singer was really pounding the strike zone, keeping the ball down (with) heavy sink. He was a ground-ball machine today," praised White Sox manager Pedro Grifol.
