Brad Keller pitched seen innings, gave up just two hits and a walk, and struck out five members of the Chicago White Sox enroute to a 5-3 opening game victory for the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium.
There was a two-hour rain delay before the game got under way and the Royals held off a ninth inning rally by the White Sox to get the win.
Friday is an off day for the two teams.
The Royals will host the White Sox Saturday at 1:15 p.m. You can hear that game on 107.9 FM and 1420 KJCK.
