Royals Stumble, Lose to Athletics
The Oakland Athletics defeated the Kansas City Royals, 10-3, at Oakland Coliseum. Oakland shortstop Josh Klein had a superb performance. He went 3 for 5 with a triple and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 3. Earning his 3rd save of the year was Kevin McGlothlin. At 30-20, the Athletics claim first place in the American League West Division.

The Athletics got an important contribution from first baseman Jim Darr, who in the bottom of the third hit a screwball into right for a 2-run double. It was his 11th double of the season and put the Athletics ahead, 4-2.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Cody Clark said.
