Blake Snell gave up one run on four hits over six innings and struck out 11, leading the Tampa Bay Rays to a 4-1 victory over the Kansas City Royals on Aug. 21 in St. Petersburg, Fla.
Snell (15-5) set a major league record with his 13th consecutive home start allowing one earned run or none, passing Max Lanier of the Cardinals, who did it 12 times in a row from June 10, 1943, to May 7, 1944.
