Mike Yastrzemski homered in his first at-bat with Kansas City, Michael Wacha limited Toronto to a run in eight innings in his longest outing of the season and the Royals beat the Blue Jays 9-3 on Friday night.

Yastrzemski hit a 370-foot blast over the wall in right-center field while facing Kevin Gausman in the second inning of the Royals’ game against the Blue Jays.

When the Royals traded for four players in three deals ahead of Thursday’s Trade Deadline, there was a small but very important part of the conversation as team officials welcomed each one to the organization and figured out the next steps.
