Royals Capture Close Win
The Kansas City Royals did just enough to sneak past the Detroit Tigers, 4-3, at Kauffman Stadium. Kansas City pitcher Heribert Garcia, in particular, had a standout performance. The Royals improved their record to 22-26 by beating Detroit.

The decisive blow was delivered by MJ Melendez in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 24-year old right-handed pitcher Juan Rosa to win the game for Kansas City. The home crowd went nuts.

"Heribert was locating, throwing all of his pitches," said Kansas City manager Ethan Delaneye. "He did a heck of a job."
