Royals Nipped, 4-1, by Houston (GCL)
The Kansas City (GCL) Royals got a sterling performance from pitcher Dominique Bisson, but the Houston (GCL) Astros still prevailed, 4-1. Bisson threw 5.2 innings of shutout ball. Jon Miles got credit for the save for Houston (GCL). It was his 9th of the year. With the win, Houston (GCL) goes to 21-25, while the Royals fall to 27-19.

Who knows how it would've ended, had it not been for Jeff Ricker? The 19-year old first baseman Ricker stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put Houston (GCL) up, 4-1. For the game, he was 2 for 4, including 1 double and 1 single.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Ricker.
