The Toronto Blue Jays beat the Kansas City Royals, 5-1, at Rogers Centre. Starting pitcher Mike Zambrano was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. The 6th-place Royals dropped to 71-82.

Pat Weldon helped out the Toronto cause in the bottom of the fourth inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the catcher was 1 for 3 with a walk.

"Mike's not intimidated by who's stepping into the batter's box," said Toronto manager TOR Blue Jays.
