KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Alec Marsh and four relievers combined for a six-hitter as the Kansas City Royals beat the Toronto Blue Jays 3-2 Wednesday night.
Maikel Garcia and Salvador Perez each had two hits and an RBI for Kansas City, which bounced back from a loss in the series opener on Monday to win two straight.
“That’s Royals baseball,” said Bobby Witt Jr., who is batting .350 during a five-game hitting streak. “We’ve got to keep doing that. Get on the base paths. Be aggressive. Make things happen. The bats will come around and (we’ll) hit some homers, too.”
John Schreiber (2-0) picked up the win in relief. James McArthur earned his sixth save.
“It’s been awesome,” McArthur said. “Those guys coming in early in the game kind of sets the tone for us to come in later. We all have a really good idea of what we’re trying to do in the pen.
