Tigers Lose By a Run at Kansas City, 5-4
The Kansas City Royals did just enough to sneak past the Detroit Tigers, 5-4, at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City pitcher Braxton Garrett, in particular, had a standout performance. Garrett went 5.1 innings to notch the win. He scattered 1 hit, walked 1, and struck out 6. His record improves to 3-1. Carlos Hernandez finished to wrap up his 2nd save.

Kansas City left fielder Dairon Blanco contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two down, he hit a circle change into right field for a 2-run single. It was his 17th hit of the season and put the Royals ahead, 2-0.

"We had the game right there for the taking," said Detroit manager Snake Clement. "But we decided not to take it."

Kansas City now owns a record of 26-25.
