Sox climb a game within .500 and improve their record to 2-1 with bench coach Miguel Cairo in control.
La Russa and Sparky Anderson, both Hall of Famers, are the only managers to win the World Series in the American and National leagues. Johnny Cueto allowed one run on six hits in 5 1/3 innings, walking none and striking out five. The 36-year-old right-hander rebounded from a rough outing last Friday when he allowed seven runs in five innings to Arizona. Five Chicago relievers combined to throw two-hit ball the rest of the way.
Vaughn's homer was his 15th, matching his total last year as a rookie. Pollock homered for the second straight game for defending AL Central champion Chicago, which is 4-10 since reaching a season-high five games above .500 on Aug 16. Kansas City rookie infielder Michael Massey had a double in his first three-hit game. The 24-year-old, who made hit major league debut on July 13, also walked in a 3-for-3 afternoon.
Daniel Mengden yielded three runs on five hits in 2 2/3 innings in his fifth appearance and first start for the Royals this season. The righty was recalled from Triple-A Omaha before the game. Kansas City jumped ahead 1-0 in the third. Waters scored from third when M.J. Melendez grounded into a force at second. Chicago came back with three in the bottom half. Andrus drove in a run with a single and Vaughn followed with a deep drive to left on the Mengden's first pitch to him.
