Kansas City Pins 5-2 Loss on Texas
The Kansas City Royals got a strong performance from pitcher Junior Santana, who stymied the visiting Texas Rangers en route to a win, 5-2, in Game 2 of the League Championship Series. The Rangers could never get a bead on the right-handed Santana, who threw 7.1 innings allowing 2 runs. The Royals now hold a 2-0 in the best-of-7 series.

Pat Magness dealt the Rangers a blow in the bottom of the sixth. Batting with a runner on 1st and Kansas City leading 3-2, Magness, who was drafted in the 2nd round of the 1998 draft, hit a 1-1 fastball for a run-scoring triple.

"Nice win for us," said Santana. "Now we'll go after the next one."

The next game is set to be played for Wednesday, October 18th , 2006 at Ameriquest Field in Arlington.
