Phillies Suffer One-Run Loss at Kansas City
Philadelphia right fielder Sam Fitzgerald had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 8-7, to Kansas City at Kauffman Stadium. Fitzgerald went 4 for 5 with 4 doubles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 2. Dylan Ratcliff recorded his 15th save for Kansas City. At 54-51, the Royals find themselves in third place in the National League Rivera Division.

Allen Zimmerman had a big 2-run double for the Royals in the bottom of the sixth inning. With Kansas City leading 6-4 and runners on 2nd and 3rd, he got a fastball from 34-year old right-handed pitcher Carlos Parra and swatted a double to left. It was his 22nd double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 8-4.

"We found a way to get it done," Zimmerman said.
