KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Alex Gordon had two hits to stretch his hitting streak to 13 games and left-hander Bruce Chen pitched seven strong innings, leading the Royals on a night when the wind chill hovered near 30 degrees. Chen beat the Indians for the fourth straight time. He stretched his personal winning streak, dating to last season, to seven games over 11 starts. Joakim Soria pitched a shaky ninth for his fifth save in six chances.
