Orioles Drop 9-3 Decision to Royals
With designated hitter Josh Bell leading the charge, the Kansas City Royals defeated the Baltimore Orioles, 9-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Bell, who finished 4th in the AL in on-base percentage with .395 last year, was 2-3 with a double and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. At 17-8, the Royals have played well so far.

Francisco Cervelli had a big 2-run double for the Royals in the bottom of the fourth inning. With Kansas City trailing 1-0 and the bases loaded, he got a curveball from 28-year old left-handed pitcher Danny Duffy and swatted a double to left. It was his 8th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 2-1.

"You look inside of the game, it's just quality approach after quality approach," said Royals manager .
