Tanner Bibee allowed two hits over 5⅔ shutout innings and Kyle Manzardo, Gabriel Arias and Daniel Schneemann each homered to lead the visiting Cleveland Indians to a 6-2 win over the Kansas City Royals in the rubber game of their three-game series on Sunday afternoon.
Bibee, scratched as Cleveland's Opening Day starter after coming down with a case of acute gastroenteritis, showed no effects from the illness. He walked two and struck out two and retired 13 batters in a row before being lifted after walking Bobby Witt Jr. in the sixth inning. One of the two hits Bibee (1-0) allowed was a double to Hunter Renfroe in the second inning that left fielder Steven Kwan lost in the sun.
Manzardo and Arias both finished with two hits, two RBIs and a run scored while Kwan went 3-for-5 with an RBI and a run scored. Schneemann reached base four times with three walks and a homer for the Guardians, who won their second straight game.
Witt had an RBI single, Vinnie Pasquantino tripled and Maikel Garcia and Renfroe each doubled for Kansas City. Michael Wacha (0-1) took the loss, allowing one run on four hits over four innings. He walked four and struck out two.
Cleveland took a 1-0 lead in the second inning when Carlos Santana lined a double over the head of left fielder Jonathan India, advanced to third on a flyout by Bo Naylor and scored on a sacrifice fly by Arias.
The Guardians extended the lead to 3-0 in the fifth off reliever Sam Long. Kwan led off with a single and scored one out later on Manzardo's second home run of the season, a 417-foot drive to right.
Cleveland added two more runs off reliever Chris Stratton in the sixth. Arias hit a solo homer to right to make it 4-0 and Schneemann followed with a walk, advanced to third on a single by Brayan Rocchio and scored on a fielder's choice.
Schneemann made it 6-0 when he led off the eighth inning with a home run to right.
Kansas City cut it to 6-2 in the eighth on an RBI single by Witt and a two-out bases-loaded walk to Renfroe. Reliever Hunter Gaddis then got out of the jam by getting Garcia to ground out.
