Associated Press

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Michael Lorenzen pitched seven shutout innings, MJ Melendez homered and the Kansas City Royals beat the Los Angeles Angels 3-0 on Wednesday for their sixth win in seven games. The Royals spoiled the season debut of Johnny Cueto, a 17-year veteran who helped Kansas City win the 2015 World Series. He allowed three runs on eight hits and two walks in 6 1/3 innings and left the mound to an ovation from the Kansas City crowd. Lorenzen allowed four hits, two walks, a hit batter and struck out five. Lucas Erceg worked a 1-2-3 ninth to earn his sixth save and fourth with the Royals.
