Kansas City picked up a win at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, bumping off the Minnesota Twins, 5-2. Pitcher Ty Hartshorn was a major reason the Royals emerged victorious. With the win, Kansas City upped its record to 79-54.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Mike Wilson to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Royals on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Wilson.
