The game, held at Kauffman Stadium in Kansas City, showcased the Royals' offensive and defensive prowess as they out-hit the White Sox with a total of 10 hits to their 3.

From the mound, Jacob Lugo delivered an outstanding performance for the Royals, pitching through all nine innings with an earned run average (ERA) of just 1.0 and a walks plus hits per inning pitched (WHIP) of 0.3333. Lugo's command was evident as he struck out six batters while maintaining an opponent batting average (OBA) of .103.
