KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Vinnie Pasquantino's one-out single in the eighth inning drove in Nick Loftin with the game's only run as the Kansas City Royals defeated the Tigers 1-0 on Saturday, snapping Detroit's five-game winning streak. Pasquantino dropped to seventh, from his usual third spot, in the Royals lineup because of Detroit's starter left-hander Tarik Skubal. He blooped a hit into short left field off Beau Brieske (1-2). Loftin had two of KC's four hits, including a double in the eighth.
