Royals Edge Detroit in Pitching Duel
In a low-scoring clash between Kansas City and Detroit, pitcher Daniel Vitriago was a difference-maker. The left-hander earned accolades in the 1-0 win. Kansas City reliever Joe Barlow picked up the win, upping his record to 1-0. Michael Lorenzen took the loss. The win puts Kansas City at 25-25 this season.

Kansas City left fielder MJ Melendez contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the sixth. With two down, he hit a sinker into right field for a run-scoring single. It was his 30th hit of the season and put the Royals ahead, 1-0.

"We found a way to get it done," Vitriago said.
