Kansas City Royals starter Ty Hartshorn was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Detroit Tigers, 4-2. The winner was Hartshorn. He threw 7.1 innings of 6-hit ball. The loser was Matt Skrmetta. Kansas City is now 57-73, Detroit 61-69.

The Tigers had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Royals going into the bottom of the fifth inning. That changed quickly when the 28-year old center fielder Austin Kearns came to the plate. Kearns hit a run-scoring triple on a first pitch fastball from Detroit hurler Matt Skrmetta. It was Kearns's 2nd triple of the year.

"We need to keep playing good baseball," Kearns told the Kansas City Chronicle.
