Royals' Bubba Starling: Provides clutch hit
Bubba Starling came off the bench to deliver a pinch-hit RBI single in Monday's 2-1 win over the Indians.Cleveland held a 1-0 lead through seven innings, but Kansas City broke through with two runs in the bottom of the eighth to take the series opener. After Maikel Franco came through with a one-out single to tie the game, Starling sent a James Karinchak offering up the middle to score the go-ahead run.

Since coming off the injured list Aug. 14, Starling has started once in the Kansas City Royals' 16 games.
