Diamondbacks Win at Kansas City, 6-3
Arizona and Kansas City duked it out and the Diamondbacks came out victorious.

The Arizona Diamondbacks knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 6-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Ramon Santiago was a big reason Arizona won. The shortstop was 2-3 with a home run and a walk. Jeurys Familia recorded the save, making him 24 for 28.

Arizona relied on the bat of Christian Vázquez to get the win. The catcher ripped a 2-run home run in the top of the fourth inning to put the Diamondbacks ahead, 2-0. For the game, Vázquez had 1 double and 1 home run in 4 at-bats.

Santiago told a Arizona Daily News reporter that he was "gratified" with the win.

The Diamondbacks move to 71-72 with the win, while the Royals drop to 70-73.
