Angels Drop Royals, 4-2
The Los Angeles Angels got a good effort from starter Hunter Ruth in defeating the Kansas City Royals at Kauffman Stadium. The final score was 4-2. Los Angeles now owns a record of 54-60.

Los Angeles used the timely hitting of Ethan Murray to seize the win. The shortstop stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 15th inning to put the Angels on top, 4-2. It was his only hit in 7 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Hunter was exceptional and he pitched with a purpose," said Los Angeles manager Kyle Dhanani.
