Twins Lose, 7-3
|
The Kansas City Royals locked up a win at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome, knocking off the Minnesota Twins, 7-3. On the mound for Kansas City was left-hander Peter Blake. He played a major role in the triumph. The winner was Blake. He threw 7.1 innings of 5-hit ball. The loser was Josh Cenate. The third-place Royals have won 5 in a row.
Kansas City used a clutch at-bat from Shelley Duncan to capture the win. The designated hitter hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Royals ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.
"We had some nice at-bats at the right time," said Royals manager Kevin S.
