The Kansas City Royals picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, downing the Oakland Athletics, 8-2. On the mound for Kansas City was right-hander Ty Hartshorn, who played a pivotal role in the win. Hartshorn yielded 2 runs over 7.2 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 2, and struck out 5. His record improves to 1-2. The Athletics drop to 9-16, as their fitful start to the 2005 campaign continues.

Andy Medina chipped in a 2-run home run for Kansas City in the bottom of the first. For the game, the third baseman had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"Obviously, you want to go out there and be good every time out," said Hartshorn. "I take the ball every day with the same mindset."
