On Sunday, June 4, 2017, the Cleveland Indians faced the Kansas City Royals, successfully avoiding a three-game sweep. Cleveland's offense, led by Roberto Perez and Daniel Robertson, put pressure on Royals pitcher Eric Skoglund early in the game. A lengthy rain delay interrupted play, forcing both starting pitchers out of the contest. After the delay, the Indians continued their strong performance, ultimately defeating Kansas City by a score of eight to zero.
