The 5-4 Kansas City win over Texas was due largely to Miguel Cabrera. The Royals left fielder went 1-2 with 2 walks. He scored 2 times. Neil Ramirez picked up the save for Kansas City, his 16th of the year. Kansas City is now riding a 3-game win streak.

Justin Smoak, who is tied for 7th in the AL in bases on balls with 26, aided the Kansas City cause with a run-scoring sacrifice fly in the bottom of the second. For the game, the designated hitter drew 2 walk in 4 trips to the plate.

"If you want to be considered a good team, these are the kind of games you have to win," said Kansas City manager .
