Cecconi finds trove in offspeed stuff as Guardians split series with Royals

The mission for the Guardians’ right-hander on Thursday was to be more precise with his secondary pitches. “I think that getting those shapes right with the offspeeds is going to help him,” Guardians manager Stephen Vogt said
