Game Recap

Despite an early challenge from Tim Anderson's leadoff home run for the Chicago White Sox on April 29, 2018, which led to a bench-clearing incident, Kansas City Royals pitcher Eric Skoglund delivered a strong outing. Skoglund helped guide the Royals to a 5-2 victory over the White Sox. This win was significant as it ended Kansas City's five-game losing streak and secured a split in their Saturday doubleheader.
