Jazz Chisholm Jr. exits with possible groin injury

That’s what happens when your offense provides you with 11 runs of early support. Cameron struck out six batters on the night while issuing a pair of walks. They scratched out a pair of runs against him in the top half of the first inning, then Cameron settled in until giving up RBI singles to Jordan Walker and Jose Fermin in the fourth and fifth respectively. The 26-year-old southpaw got 14 whiffs on 108 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 31 percent. He’ll carry a 4.20 ERA and 1.27 WHIP into Wednesday’s matchup against the Rays in Tampa Bay.

Winn smacked a two-out double in the fifth inning and scored on an RBI knock by Jose Fermin. He then started the seventh with a single and scored on an RBI ground out by Fermin. Winn also singled in the eighth. With his three-hit night, he’s now hitting .242/.321/.324 with just two home runs, 26 RBI and six swipes on the season.

Yikes. Liberatore did record two of his five outs via the strikeout and didn’t walk a batter. He allowed one run in the opening inning on a solo blast by Bobby Witt Jr. The Royals then piled on with six more while chasing him in the second. He got four whiffs on just 48 pitches in the game, posting a CSW of 27 percent. He now holds a disappointing 5.23 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and a 67/27 K/BB ratio over 72 1/3 innings of work in 15 starts on the season. He’ll try to get back on track when he takes on the Diamondbacks on Wednesday.

That was the thought when he left the field, so nothing new from the update as Witt heads for further evaluation. Expect Royals’ skipper Matt Quatraro to have more information when he talks to the media following the conclusion of Thursday’s game.

Benintendi strolled to the dish as a pinch hitter for Randal Grichuk with the bases loaded and one out in the eighth inning with the score knotted at one run apiece. He then jumped on a first-pitch sinker from Camilo Doval and clobbered his 393-foot (99.7-mph EV) game-changing blast. On the season, the 31-year-old outfielder is now slashing .242/.301/.440 with nine long balls and 37 RBI.

Montgomery opened the scoring in the ballgame as he ambushed a first-pitch sinker from Ryan Weathers for a 420-foot (94.7-mph EV) solo shot to lead off the second inning. He also walked in the seventh and singled in the eighth inning, reaching three times in his four trips to the plate. For the season, the 24-year-old shortstop is now slashing .230/.325/.516 with 20 homers and 45 RBI.

Burke punched out eight hitters in the contest while issuing one walk. He entered in the second inning after Bryan Hudson got the first five outs as an opener for the White Sox. Burke served up a solo homer to Ryan McMahon in the third inning, but that would be the only run that they could muster against him the rest of the way. The 26-year-old got 20 swings and misses on 88 offerings in the game, posting an elite CSW of 39 percent. Now 4-4 on the season, he’ll look to replicate this fine performance as he brings a 3.89 ERA, 1.22 WHIP and a 81/29 K/BB ratio (81 innings) into Tuesday’s divisional showdown against the Guardians.

McMahon connected on a 430-foot (108.3-mph EV) solo shot off of Sean Burke to open the third inning that tied the game at one run apiece. That would be his only hit in the ballgame. For the season, the 31-year-old slugger is slashing .212/.273/.369 with eight long balls and 23 RBI.

The 26-year-old southpaw scattered just three hits and one walk on the evening. The lone tally against him came on a solo blast off the bat of Colson Montgomery in the second inning. Unfortunately, the Yankees were only able to provide one run of support for him. Weathers got 13 whiffs on 88 pitches on the night, posting a CSW of 28 percent. Still 2-5 on the season, he’ll bring a 4.13 ERA, 1.13 WHIP and an 89/22 K/BB ratio (80 2/3 innings) into Tuesday’s matchup against the Tigers in Detroit.

Soto got the Mets on the board first with a 386-foot (100.5-mph EV) solo shot off of Aaron Nola in the opening inning. He then replicated the feat in the third inning — that time with a 389-foot (105.0-mph EV) blast. The 27-year-old superstar also drew a walk in the ballgame, finishing the night 2-for-4. For the season, he’s now slashing an outstanding .300/.398/.582 with 17 homers, 38 RBI and six stolen bases on the season.
