Yankees Land Close Win
The New York Yankees withstood an impressive performance by Kansas City first baseman Patrick Pollack to defeat the Royals, 6-5, at Yankee Stadium. Pollack went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Vic Schramm, now 11-3, was credited with the win in 0.2 innings of relief. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 1 and walking 1. The first-place Yankees, at 102-52, now lead their division by 12 games.

The decisive blow was delivered by Leo Heroy in the bottom of the ninth when he hit a run-scoring double off 24-year old left-handed pitcher Wolfe Agbayani to win the game for New York. The home crowd went nuts.

"The crowd was juiced," said Heroy.
