The Kansas City Royals faced a tough opponent in Toronto pitcher Edgar G Gonzalez, but found a way to pull out the victory at Skydome by a final score of 6-4 in 11 innings. Gonzalez went 5 innings and allowed 2 runs. Dan Jennings wrapped it up, recording his 1st save. Kansas City has won 3 straight, while Toronto has lost 3 in a row.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Chris Swauger to seize the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 11th inning to put the Royals on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"Our team found a way to get it done," said Swauger.
