NOTES: 3b Alex Gordon had a hit in his rehab game at Triple-A Omaha on Friday night and the Royals are encouraged in the progress he's making since having hip surgery in April. "He's not having any pain. That's the big plus," manager Trey Hillman said. ... While going 2-4 on this homestand, the Royals have given up at least one home run every game but still lead the league in fewest homers allowed (70). ... Before their current 15-5 road surge, the White Sox had gone 1-10 away from home.
