On the next-to-last day of the regular season, the Cleveland Indians absorbed a postseason setback.
Joey Gathright singled home the go-ahead run in the eighth, lifting the Kansas City Royals over Cleveland 4-3 Saturday night and ending the Indians’ hope of getting home-field advantage throughout the AL playoffs.
The Indians already had clinched the AL Central title and were set to play the New York Yankees in the first round.
Cleveland’s loss gave AL East champion Boston the home field.
