Royals Get Past Oakland for 10-9 Win
The Kansas City Royals withstood an impressive performance by Oakland shortstop Jaime Araujo to defeat the Athletics, 10-9, at McAfee Coliseum. Araujo was 3 for 4 with 2 doubles and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 3. Jeremy Lee earned the win after being brought in from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. His record is now 5-1. Craig Stammen picked up his 12th save of the season.

Andy LaRoche came through with a big-time hit for Kansas City. The third baseman smacked a 2-run home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 10-9. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said LaRoche. "And not try to do too much."

The slumping Athletics have dropped 6 in a row.
