    Royals LHP Mike Minor returns to face Rangers

    Kansas City Royals left-hander Mike Minor defeated his former Texas Rangers teammates in his first start of the season in April, but his performance contained some shaky elements. Minor, 33, will look for a much sharper outing when the Royals oppose the Rangers on Friday night in the opener of athree-game set in Arlington, Texas. Minor (6-4, 4.48 ERA) picked up the victory in the 11-4 triumph in Kansas City on April 3, but it was the Royals' offense that bailed him out.

Judge got the Yankees started with a solo shot in the first, Luke Voit had another in the third and Sánchez blew the game open with a three-run drive in the sixth. New York had not won by more than four runs since a 7-0 rout of the Chicago White Sox on May 22.
