The Kansas City Royals torpedoed the Minnesota Twins at Target Field. The final score was 10-2, Kansas City. Gavin Cross went 4-for-5 for the winning team. The Royals, now 6-3, have played some good baseball in the early going.

Steve Davis drew 1 walk in 6 plate appearances. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Kansas City. The former first round draft pick had a key at-bat in the top of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Jack O'Connor. It was his 3rd RBI of the season.

"Nothing to write home about," Minnesota manager Ryan Ranta said, when asked afterward about the game.
