Phillies Zap Royals, 4-1
The Philadelphia Phillies beat the Kansas City Royals, 4-1, at Kauffman Stadium. The win was due in part to center fielder Johan Rojas, who was 3 for 4 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The Phillies are now 66-62, while the Royals fall to 59-70.

Philadelphia used the timely hitting of Bryson Stott to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Phillies on top, 2-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Winning is the only objective," said Rojas after the game.
