Narrow Win Takes Kansas City Streak to 10
Minnesota got a valiant performance from pitcher Bruce Richard, but it wasn't enough to beat the Kansas City Royals. Kansas City won the game, 3-2. Richard threw 7.0 innings of 1-hit ball for the losing team. Now 73-59, Kansas City has won 10 consecutive games.

Jim Bennett came through with a big-time hit for Kansas City. The pinch hitter smacked a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 3-2. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"This team keeps racking up the wins," said Royals manager Danny Espinosa.
