Royals Knock Off Cardinals at Kauffman Stadium
The Kansas City Royals picked up a win at Kauffman Stadium, defeating the St. Louis Cardinals, 8-1. Starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg was an essential part of his team's success. Kansas City is now 14-10.

Howie Kendrick had a big 2-run double for the Royals in the bottom of the first inning. With Kansas City leading 1-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he got a curveball from former first round draft pick Jered Weaver and swatted a double to right. It was his 7th double of the season, and more importantly, it put the Royals ahead, 3-0.

"We had a nice day," said Kansas City skipper Kevin Mitchell.
