KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Michael Massey homered and Maikel Garcia singled in two runs in a three-run seventh inning as the Kansas City Royals rallied past the Milwaukee Brewers 3-2 on Monday night.

The start was moved up a half-hour to 6:10 p.m. CDT to beat predicted thunderstorms, which didn't arrive before the last out.

After the Royals did next to nothing against Milwaukee starter Bryse Wilson, who allowed one hit and struck out six in six scoreless innings, they broke through in the seventh against the Brewers' bullpen.

Massey greeted Jared Koenig (2-1) with a 412-foot homer to right-center. Koenig was lifted with one out after a walk and a hit batsman, and Garcia hit a bases-loaded single up the middle against Elvis Peguero.

Cole Ragans allowed two runs on two hits in six innings for the Royals, striking out eight. Nick Anderson (2-1) pitched a scoreless seventh. Tyler Duffey and Will Smith got through the eighth — helped by catcher Salvador Perez, who threw out Jackson Chourio trying to steal third — and Chris Stratton worked the ninth for his second save.

Gary Sánchez hit a two-run homer in the fourth for the Brewers, taking advantage of a strong southerly wind. He got a 2-1 fastball up into the air and it landed 427 feet away in the seats in left-center.

Wilson walked the first two Royals in the sixth. But he induced Vinnie Pasquantino to hit into a 4-6-3 double play and then struck out Perez to get out of the jam.

Brewers: Selected the contract of RHP Kevin Herget from Triple-A Nashville. RHP Janson Junk was optioned to Nashville ... RHP Jakob Junis was transferred to the 60-day injured list. ... RHP Freddy Peralta dropped his appeal and began his five-game suspension for hitting Tampa Bay's Jose Siri with a pitch Tuesday.

Royals: RHP Alec Marsh felt good after a rehab start with Triple-A Omaha Sunday. He is on schedule to return to the starting rotation Friday at the Los Angeles Angels.

The three-game series continues Tuesday with Milwaukee RHP Colin Rea (3-0, 2.67 ERA) facing Kansas City RHP Seth Lugo (5-1, 1.60).

🏃‍♂️ Five More All-Conference Finishes at MIAA Outdoor Championships

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Jonah Heim hit a tying solo home run in the ninth inning and Nathaniel Lowe had a go-ahead RBI single in the 10th, leading the Texas Rangers to a 3-2 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Sunday.

With one out in the 10th, Corey Seager singled off James McArthur (1-1) to put runners on first and third. Lowe followed with his third RBI of the series to score Leody Tavares.

David Robertson pitched a scoreless 10th that included an intentional walk to Bobby Witt Jr. with two outs to seal the win for the Rangers with his first save of the season.

Kirby Yates (3-0) earned the win by tossing two scoreless innings of relief.

Heim tied it at 2 in the ninth off McArthur when his shot struck the right-field foul pole for a home run. The homer snapped a season-high four-game drought for the Rangers.

It was the third straight series win for the Rangers overall and the sixth in a row against the Royals since 2021.

Texas moved to 3-3 in rubber games this season, while Kansas City dropped to 1-5.

Rangers starter Jon Gray allowed two runs and seven hits with no walks and seven strikeouts in seven innings.

Kansas City's Daniel Lynch tossed five innings of shutout ball in his season debut with just two hits, two walks and six strikeouts. Lynch retired 10 straight after getting out of a bases-loaded jam in the first.

Vinnie Pasquantino gave the Royals an early 2-0 lead with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the first and an RBI double in the third. But Kansas City went 1 for 10 with runners in scoring position.

Kansas City recalled Lynch for the start and optioned RHP Colin Selby to Triple-A Omaha to make room.

Rangers rookie OF Wyatt Langford left Saturday night with right hamstring tightness and was scheduled to have an MRI on Sunday. The team expected to know more by Monday.

Rangers: Texas will head to Oakland for a four-game series. Andrew Heaney (0-4, 5.10 ERA) will start against the A's.

🏃‍♀️ Four all-conference performances for the Tigers after day two at MIAA

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Nathaniel Lowe had four hits and two RBIs, and the Texas Rangers beat the Kansas City Royals 15-4 on Saturday night.

Lowe went 4 for 6 one night after going hitless in four at bats in Texas' 7-1 loss. It was his first four-hit game since last July 14.

“I guess it was just my turn in the grand pendulum of the swing of baseball," Lowe said. “It was great to have so many guys contribute. We got smoked last night, so it was good to come back tonight.”

Adolis García, Evan Carter and Travis Jankowski also drove in two runs each. Carter scored on a wild pitch after a two-run triple in the third inning. Garcia extended his hitting streak to six games, and Carter had two hits to extend his hit streak to five games.

The Rangers totaled a season-high 17 hits and set a season-high in runs against the team entering the game with the highest run differential in the majors.

Texas had three three-run innings and a five-run ninth to hand Kansas City its worst loss of the season. Two-runs scored on a wild pitch by Colin Selby and a throwing error to third base on the same play to cap a three-run seventh. Joe Smith, Jankowski, Marcus Semien, Leody Taveras and Ezequiel Duran had RBIs in the ninth.

“It was good to see everyone do something to help in the cause," Texas manager Bruce Bochy said. ”We got shut down the night before the guys came out and put together great at-bats it is good for their confidence. ... Everyone did something tonight."

Dane Dunning pitched 4 2/3 innings, giving up two runs and four hits. Dunning had limited the Royals to just one hit through the first four innings.

Josh Sborz (1-0) pitched one inning of relief to get the win.

Michael Wacha (1-4) pitched a season-low 3 2/3 innings, allowing a season-high seven runs and nine hits with one walk and three strikeouts.

“Obviously looked like some missed locations tonight," Royals Manager Matt Quatraro said. "You have to tip your cap to them as well.”

Hunter Renfroe put the Royals on the board with a two-run single to left field with two outs in the fifth. Bobby Witt Jr. recorded his 11th stolen base of the season, which leads the American League.

Vinnie Pasquantino and Garrett Hampson each drove in a run, and Michael Massey had three hits to extend his hitting streak to seven games.

Rangers: Wyatt Langford exited the game in the fifth inning with right hamstring tightness. Langford was 0 for 3.

Royals: RHP Alec Marsh (right elbow contusion) is scheduled to make a rehab start with Triple-A Omaha on May 5. The Royals put Marsh on the 15-day injured list on April 25, making him eligible to return on May 10.

WARRENSBURG, Mo. - The Fort Hays State baseball team jumped in front of the second-ranked team in the country for a second day in a row, but conference champion Central Missouri battled back to defeat the Tigers in game two of their MIAA Championship quarterfinal series on Saturday, 14-4 at Crane Stadium/Tomkins Field. With the win, the Mules (45-6) advance to the semifinals of the conference tournament next week in Pittsburg, Kan., while the Tigers wrap up the regular season at 25-26 overall.

Fort Hays State was playing in the postseason for the first time since 2013, while the Tigers' 25 wins are their most in a season in a dozen years (29 wins in 2012). Second-year head coach Justin Wichert&nbsp;has now led the team to back-to-back 20-win seasons, a feat not accomplished by FHSU in more than a decade.

Both the Tigers and Mules had chances to score in the first inning, but the Tigers were unable to take advantage of a two-on, one-out situation while the Mules wasted a two-out triple. Fort Hays State broke through in the top of the second when Sebastian Burgos&nbsp;opened a rally with a one-out single. Luis Ayala&nbsp;followed with a single to right center, allowing Burgos to advance to third. Jamison Armstrong&nbsp;then executed on a safety squeeze, laying down a perfect bunt to drive his fellow middle infielder home.

Tiger starter Trevor Baugh&nbsp;worked around a double in the second inning to post another zero before FHSU added to its lead in the third. Cesar Saavedra&nbsp;led off with a single before Brady Kreutzer&nbsp;smashed a one-out home run over the wall in left field, putting the Tigers on top 3-0 for a second game in a row.

The first two batters reached for UCM in the bottom of the inning, but Baugh was able to post another scoreless frame after a flyout, a groundout and some help from Ayala behind the plate on a caught stealing.

The Tigers stranded another runner in the top of the fourth before UCM got on the board in the home half of the inning thanks to a triple and sacrifice fly. FHSU then went down in order before the Mules took the lead for good in the bottom of the fifth courtesy of back-to-back home runs. Spencer Maley&nbsp;came out of the bullpen to strike out the side while allowing one base hit, limiting the damage to four runs.

Trailing 5-3, Fort Hays State battled back with a run in the top of the sixth. Trey DeGarmo&nbsp;reached on a leadoff error before scoring from second on another Ayala single. Armstrong then reached on another error, putting two men in scoring position with one out. MIAA Pitcher of the Year Conner Wolf escaped the jam with back-to-back strikeouts, maintaining a 5-4 Mule lead.

Central Missouri continued to pour things on, adding three runs in the bottom of the sixth, two in the seventh and four in the eighth to complete the run-rule victory.

Baugh (3-3) struck out three batters over 4.0 innings of work, allowing five runs on seven hits and two walks. Maley&nbsp;struck out three and allowed two unearned runs on two hits. Rafeal Espinoza, Tanner Vaughn, Landyn Sterling and Dylan Rinker&nbsp;also contributed out of the bullpen, with Vaughn and Sterling each striking out one batter.

Saavedra and Ayala both collected two hits in the game, with Kreutzer, Elliott Herrmann&nbsp;and Burgos all adding one base hit. Kreutzer had two RBI on his 12th home run of the season, while Ayala and Armstrong both drove in one RBI.&nbsp;&nbsp;
