(AP) — Liam Hendriks' abbreviated start forced Royals relievers to work six innings, and that didn't work out very well. Royals manager Ned Yost went to his bullpen early when Hendriks was pulled after three-plus innings. Herrera normally pitches the seventh and Davis the eighth, but Yost called on both relievers an inning earlier while trying to protect a one-run lead in an important game. Davis replaced Herrera with two on in the seventh inning and walked Jose Abreu to load the bases for Conor Gillaspie, who cleared them with a triple to right-center on a 2-2 pitch to give Chicago a 7-5 lead. [...] snapped was Davis' shutout streak of 31 2-3 innings, a club record for a reliever, with the first run charged to him since June 25. The Royals remained 1 1/2 games behind the Tigers, but still lead Seattle by a game for the second wild-card spot. Nori Aoki had his second straight four-hit game, including a sixth-inning single that put the Royals up 5-4. White Sox: LHP Chris Sale, an AL Cy Young Award contender, starts the series finale.
