KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Bo Bichette had a bases-clearing triple, Daulton Varsho hit a two-run homer and the Toronto Blue Jays beat the Kansas City Royals 5-3 on Monday night.
The Jays have won seven of nine. The Royals lost their third straight at home after winning their previous nine at Kauffman Stadium.
Yusei Kikuchi (2-1) was efficient early, allowing one baserunner on 48 pitches in the first five innings.
“(Kikuchi) was lights out early, he just ran into trouble on the sixth,” Toronto manager John Schneider said. “That’s as efficient as I’ve ever seen him with his pitch count. He was attacking guys, getting weak contact and strikeouts.
“And (we got) huge hits from Bo and Varsho, obviously.”
Kikuchi allowed a two-run home run by Maikel Garcia in the sixth. With two outs, Vinnie Pasquantino hit an infield single and Salvador Perez followed with a double. But Kikuchi retired Nelson Velázquez on a grounder to end the threat.
