Pablo Reyes stumbled, stopped and still scrambled home safely on a wild play in the eighth inning, taking advantage of a throwing error by reliever Lucas Erceg to give the New York Yankees a 1-0 victory over the Kansas City Royals.

Pablo Reyes scored the only run of the game after he stumbled heading for home, got up and slid safely into home on a poor throw to the plate.

With Aaron Judge getting at least the start of the night off, the Yankees struggled to do much without him before scrapping a run across.
