Royals 1, Orioles 0

Cole Ragans and the Royals shut out the Orioles 1-0 from Baltimore to take an early lead in their American League Wild Card series. The starter allowed four hits and struck out eight batters over six innings. The bullpen allowed just one more hit over the final three frames as Lucas Erceg notched a four-out save. Bobby Witt Jr.’s RBI-single in the sixth inning stood as the game’s only run. The Royals lead the best-of-three series 1-0 with Game Two taking place this afternoon at Camden Yards. Right-hander Seth Lugo is slated to start opposite Baltimore righty Zach Eflin.
