Massey and Vinnie Pasquantino each produced three hits. Michael Massey opened the fourth with his first home run of the season and Edward Olivares opened the seventh with his third homer. Pratto’s homer, a two-run shot to right, gave Kansas City a 7-1 lead in the fifth. “I couldn’t get the ball elevated when I needed to and when I tried to go down it was in the middle of the plate, too. “A lot of mistakes in the middle of the plate,” Lynn said. Lynn surrendered seven runs on nine hits two walks, fanning four over five innings. “If you can make the other team work we’re going to get opportunities to do damage.” “Making pitchers work, making them earn their outs, that’s a big thing in this game,” Pratto said. The Royals batted around in the first, collecting six hits, including Pratto’s two-out RBI single, grabbing a 4-0 lead while forcing Lance Lynn (1-5) to toss 37 pitches in the inning. That inning gave me confidence to keep going.” “The offense putting up numbers like they did allowed me to just go out there and throw strikes. “I think that (third) was by far my best inning,” Keller said. Keller finished five innings, allowing one run on three hits and four walks, striking out four to earn his first win since April 12. It wasn’t just one pitch they had to worry about.” The third inning he came out and threw some good fastballs in the zone. He really executed some pitches, especially with the off-speed stuff. “The walks in the beginning, he easily could have fought himself hard,” Royals manager Matt Quatraro said. Gavin Sheets walked to lead off the second and scored on Hanser Alberto’s single for Chicago’s lone run. “We had them on the ropes there and he was able to get out of it.” “We had a chance to put some runs on the board in the first inning and we didn’t,” White Sox manager Pedro Grifol said. Keller (3-3), who leads the majors with 32 walks allowed, got into immediate trouble walking the first two batters he faced, but escaped first-inning damage with a double play and strikeout. (AP) - Nick Pratto homered and Brad Keller won for the first time in nearly a month as the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox 9-1 on Wednesday night.
