Royals Fall Short at Arizona, 7-6
Arizona beat Kansas City at Chase Field, escaping with a 7-6 win in 10 innings. The win in large part was due to catcher Willson Contreras. He went 4-5 with 2 doubles and 2 singles. He drove in 5 runs. Kenley Jansen, who is tied for 2nd in the AL in saves with 32, earned the win in relief. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 3 innings. He upped his record to 5-10. With the win, the Diamondbacks sit at 80-72.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With one out, Contreras hit a changeup from Kelvin Herrera for a run-scoring double. The Diamondbacks, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Sometimes winning takes more than 27 outs," said Diamondbacks manager waittilnextyear Smith.
