WASHINGTON– The Kansas City Royals are returning to the World Series. They topped Toronto 4-3 to clinch the American League Championship Series 4-games-to-2.
Lorenzo Cain scored from first on a single by Eric Hosmer to snap a 3-3 tie in the 8th. The Blue Jays had tied the game in the top of the inning on a 2-run homer by Jose Bautista, his second homerun of the game.
The game ended with the Jays stranding runners on second and third.
Kansas City will now host the first two games of the World Series against the New York Mets starting Tuesday.
