The Indians scored all of their runs in an eighth-inning uprising that lifted them to a 5-3 victory over the Royals in the series finale Sunday at Progressive Field.
Cleveland had just four hits through seven innings, scoring five times in the fifth, sparked by Shelley Duncan’s three-run home run.
The win left the Indians in front of the last-place Royals by 1 1/2 games in the Central Division standings.
