Royals Clip Mounties, 6-5
|
In a tight contest at Telus Centre, the Kansas City Royals edged the Vancouver Mounties by the score of 6-5. Kansas City catcher Russell Martin, who blasted 1 home run, was a key contributor. Kansas City pitcher Fernando Salas got the win, upping his record to 4-0. Oliver Perez got the loss. The Royals go to 43-41, putting them second in the AL Central Division.
Martin had a timely hit for Kansas City in the top of the eighth. With Vancouver trailing 5-4, he turned a 0-2 changeup into a 2-run home run. It was his 3rd home run of the season, making it 6-5, Kansas City.
"Win or lose, we pick each other up in this clubhouse," Martin told the Kansas City Herald.
