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.

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.

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.
