Royals tag White Sox for 12, Bergert gets first KC win in series finale

"14-year Royals veteran catcher Salvador Perez remains on record-watch in a number of different statistical categories. Tonight, Salvy passed Amos Otis for the third-most RBI's in Royals history with 993. Another player fans likely had their eyes on was right-handed rookie pitcher Ryan Bergert. Coming into the series finale, he was yet to make it through innings at the big-league level, and yet to tally his first win as a Royal. He did both in Chicago tonight."

"As mentioned above, the Royals tacked 12 runs and 16 hits onto the White Sox pitching staff. Among those driving in runs were right fielder Mike Yastrzemski, who had three RBI with a homer, Bobby Witt Jr., who drove in a pair and increased his hitting streak against the Sox to 21 games, first baseman Vinnie Pasquantino with two RBI and Salvador Perez who drove in three in just one inning, batting twice in the frame with a homer."

The Royals won the series in Chicago with a decisive 12-run performance in the finale, including an eight-run fifth inning. Kansas City collected 16 hits while the White Sox managed one run in that inning. Salvador Perez passed Amos Otis for third-most RBIs in Royals history with 993, driving in three runs and homering in the big frame. Rookie right-hander Ryan Bergert completed more innings and earned his first win with the club. Mike Yastrzemski hit a home run and drove in three, Bobby Witt Jr. added two RBIs and extended a 21-game hitting streak versus the White Sox.
