CHICAGO — Daniel Lynch pitched six crisp innings and the Kansas City Royals handed the Chicago White Sox their eighth straight loss with a 6-0 victory.

Bobby Witt Jr. had two hits and Carlos Santana drove in two runs, helping Kansas City stop a four-game slide.

The Royals were outscored 22-12 in a sweep at Seattle over the weekend.

Lynch allowed two hits, struck out seven and walked two.
