Cameron escapes bases-loaded jam in first, Garcia homers to lead Royals to 4-1 win over Guardians
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Noah Cameron escaped a bases-loaded jam in the first before tossing five innings of three-hit ball, Maikel Garcia homered for the second time in three games, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Cleveland Guardians 4-1 on Sunday. Garcia finished with two RBIs, and Vinnie Pasquantino and Luke Maile also drove in runs, while the Kansas City bullpen allowed only Gabriel Arias' homer amid four hits over the final four innings. Carlos Estévez worked around a leadoff double in the ninth for his 27th save. Cameron (5-4) was stingy after the first, when Steven Kwan, Angel Martínez and José Ramírez began the game by loading the bases with nobody out. Cameron rebounded to retire David Fry, Carlos Santana and Arias, then allowed only two baserunners in the next four innings. He also struck out six in another dominant performance. The 26-year-old left-hander from nearby St. Joseph, Missouri, lowered his ERA to 2.44 and has not lost a game since June 27. Joey Cantillo (2-1) lasted only four innings for Cleveland on a hot, humid day in Kansas City. He allowed three runs and three hits and four walks while striking out four in his fifth start since joining the Guardians' rotation. Cantillo had twice faced Kansas City in relief this season, retiring all six he faced and striking out four of them. Key moment The fruitless first proved to be pivotal for Cleveland, when Fry flied out to right, Santana struck out and Arias grounded out to end the inning. Kansas City proceeded to coax across two runs in the bottom half and never trailed. Key stat The Royals won despite going 0 for 6 with runners in scoring position. Up next The Guardians return home to face Colorado on Monday night with RHP Slade Cecconi (5-4, 3.76 ERA) starting the opener. The Royals welcome the Braves on Monday night with LHP Rich Hill (0-1, 1.80) on the mound first for the three-game series. ___ AP MLB:

Noah Cameron continues hot start to career in Royals win against Guardians
July 27 - Noah Cameron struck out six over five scoreless innings, while Maikel Garcia homered with two RBIs, as the host Kansas City Royals won 4-1 over the Cleveland Guardians on Sunday. Rookie Cameron (5-4) dodged some first-inning trouble to record another solid outing in his 14th career start. The left-hander also allowed three hits with a walk while throwing 83 pitches on a steamy day to lower his ERA to 2.44. Meanwhile, Garcia led the offense, which managed just four hits, but scored twice in the first inning and cruised to take two of three in this series. Gabrial Arias clubbed a late solo homer for one of his two hits for the Guardians, who stranded eight runners in falling short of winning their fifth consecutive series. Cameron loaded the bases with nobody out in his first eight pitches of the game. However, he got Cleveland's David Fry to pop out to short right field, struck out Carlos Santana and induced an inning-ending ground out to Arias. Meanwhile, the Royals didn't waste their opportunity in the bottom of the first against the Guardians' Joey Cantillo (2-1). Jonathan India opened with a walk and went to third on Bobby Witt Jr.'s double to right field. Run-scoring ground outs from Vinnie Pasquantino and Garcia followed for a 2-0 Kansas City lead. The Royals added a run in the fourth. John Rave walked, then showed off his speed by scoring from first on Luke Maile's double into the left-field gap that was cut off by Steven Kwan. Cantillo's day ended after allowing those three runs, three hits and walking four with four strikeouts over four innings. Matt Festa came on in the fifth and yielded that line-drive homer over the left-field fence to Garcia. Cleveland finally got on the board in the seventh when Arias sent an opposite-field drive into the fountains in right off Angel Zerpa. Kansas City All-Star Carlos Estevez allowed Arias' lead-off double in the ninth, then retired the next three batters for his 27th save. --Field Level Media
