Here is the latest Mid-America sports news from The Associated Press
ARLINGTON, Texas (AP) — Danny Duffy took a shutout into the eighth inning, Salvador Perez threw out a baserunner on a ball that hit Shin-Soo Choo in the nose, and the Kansas City Royals beat the Texas Rangers 8-2. Duffy’s pitch in the dirt bounced off Perez in the first inning and then hit Choo in the face, sending the left-handed hitter staggering out of the box. Perez scrambled to get the ball from in front of home plate, then threw out Delino DeShields trying to take second on the play.
KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — The Chiefs signed second-round draft pick Breeland Speaks to his four-year rookie contract, making him the third of their six draft selections to sign a deal.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Wyatt Cross’ bloop single scored Cole Barr from second base in the bottom of the 10th inning to give Indiana a 6-5 win over Michigan State in a Big Ten Tournament elimination game. The Hoosiers had tied it in the bottom of the ninth on Matt Gorski’s two-out, three-run homer off Mitchell Tyranski. Barr singled off Mike Mokma in the 10th, stole second and beat the throw home when Cross flared a ball into short left.
OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Ryan Feltner pitched six scoreless innings while striking out six and Ohio State blanked Iowa 2-0, knocking the Hawkeyes out of the Big Ten Tournament. Tyler Cowles and Kobie Foppe knocked in runs for the Buckeyes.
The Atlantic Trojans baseball team picked up a win in Red Oak on Thursday night by the final of 14-1 but it was a much tighter game than that until the late innings. The Trojans jumped out to an early 2-0 lead in the first but everything went cold after that until the sixth. Atlantic got 3 across in the 6th with a double by Chase Mullenix and a single by Jaxson Eden driving in runs. Atlantic then piled up 9 runs in the 7th as Red Oak struggled to get the final out of the inning. Brody O’Brien had a bases clearing double as part of that big 7th inning. Red Oak got their lone run across on a single by Garrett Couse.
Chase McLaren pitched six strong innings for Atlantic, allowing no runs on 1 hit and 10 strikeouts with just two walks. Mason Goergen pitched the seventh to finish the game for Atlantic. Atlantic improves to 2-0 on the season with the win.
Carter Bruce took the loss for the tigers by pitching 5 2/3 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits with 8 strikeouts and 1 walk. The Tigers fall to 0-2 on the season.

OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — Ryan Feltner pitched six scoreless innings while striking out six and Ohio State blanked Iowa 2-0 on Thursday, knocking the Hawkeyes out of the Big Ten Tournament. Tyler Cowles and Kobie Foppe each knocked in runs for the Buckeyes (35-21), who will meet the loser of Thursday’s Michigan-Purdue game on Friday in another elimination game. The first of Foppe’s three hits put Ohio State up 1-0 in the first inning, and Cowles made it 2-0 on a double in the fifth. Seth Kinker pitched three innings of one-hit ball for his 14th save.
Cole McDonald (3-2) took the loss for Iowa, whose season is likely over barring an unexpected invitation to the NCAA Tournament. The Hawkeyes (33-20) had just five hits and scored only once in back-to-back defeats in Omaha.
