C.J. Kayfus belted a go-ahead two-run homer in the eighth inning on Thursday night, leading the Guardians to a 3-2 victory over the visiting Royals.

The Guardians had trailed the entire game since Vinnie Pasquantino belted a two-run homer in the first inning. They scratched out a run in the fourth inning, but that was it until the eighth. There, Bo Naylor led off the inning with a single off of John Schreiber and Kayfus followed with a 425-foot (106.6 mph EV) two-run blast that put the Guardians ahead to stay. The 23-year-old finished the memorable evening 1-for-3. He’s hitting just .200/.264/.355 with three homers, 13 RBI and three stolen bases in his first 106 plate appearances with the Guardians.
