Last night, Gavin Williams pitched seven sharp innings, as the Cleveland Guardians beat the Kansas City Royals 4-2.
Williams allowed one run and one hit, retiring his last 16 batters faced.
The Guardians began the day with a 3 1/2-game lead over Minnesota and Kansas City in the division, and held the Royals to just two hits in their season-high sixth consecutive loss.
Kansas City has tumbled to the bottom of the AL Wild Card standings but still holds the third spot with a 4.5 game lead over the Boston Red Sox

Kansas City plays Baltimore, Cincinnati, Atlanta and the Los Angeles Chargers during that span.
Edwards-Helaire has been dealing with PTSD and vomiting after a 2018 shooting incident when he was in college at LSU.
