In a 6-for-32 skid, Perez dropped in two opposite-field, two-out hits to drive in pair of runs and help the Kansas City Royals beat the Chicago White Sox 7-6 on Saturday night.

Kansas City Royals right fielder Alex Rios catches a fly ball for the out on Chicago White Sox’s Geovany Soto during the eighth inning of a baseball game Saturday, August 8, 2015, in Kansas City, Mo.

The White Sox are for the down by having dropping in four from their last eight but may well be urged due to promoting team members, which generally kept the group within the garage door opener after making it possible for around eight works over the prior inside studies relating to disputes. Morales and Perez picked up back-to-back run-producing doubles with two out in a four-run fifth. 298 while limiting left-handers to a. 198 average. With Cain on second and Eric Hosmer batting, Danks gave up his third hit in a row (single), and Cain raced home from second, putting the Royals up by two runs. Danks walked Kendrys Morales but survived the sixth inning without further damage, stranding two. Whether expanding the strike zone or hitting poorly in big situations, the White Sox stranded five runners in scoring position, including the tying runs in the eighth inning even though there were no outs. Jarrod Dyson led off the inning with a triple and scored on Mike Moustakas’ sacrifice fly.

“It’s been tough for us to try to combine the defense with the pitching with the offense”, Abreu said through an interpreter.

Adam LaRoche homered in the ninth inning but Greg Holland struck out Flowers with the tying run at first to close it out.

Not only have the White Sox won 11 of their past 13 games, they have outscored their opponents 72-33 over that stretch.

“I don’t know if you expect this”, Ventura said, “but you know guys are going to have a bump here and there”. “You like his attitude”, White Sox manager Robin Ventura said. Luke Hochevar allowed two inherited runners to score, and the Royals would have to sweat out the victory.

“It’s something I’ve been dealing with, ” said the left-handed Eaton, who originally hurt the shoulder on a dive in the outfield in Cleveland two weeks ago.

Chicago is 4 1/2 games back of the second wild card, but it would have to jump six teams. “Hopefully, we can get on the good side of things and roll a little bit here”.
