KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Francisco Lindor finished with a career-high seven RBIs as the Indians beat the Kansas City Royals 9-3.
Lindor homered twice, including a grand slam.
Corey Kluber gave up two runs in the first inning, but little after that.
He allowed three runs and seven hits, walked none and struck out five over six innings.
Indians right-hander Danny Salazar will miss the rest of this season after undergoing shoulder surgery. The Indians said Salazar will not be able to pitch for at least three months.
A former All-Star, Salazar has been on the disabled list since the start of the year.
