Orioles Top Royals, 3-2
The Baltimore Orioles topped the Kansas City Royals, 3-2, at Royals Stadium. Baltimore first baseman Eddie Murray banged out 3 singles and 1 double, while driving in 1 runs. Baltimore reliever Tom Underwood picked up the win, upping his record to 3-0. Mickey Mahler absorbed the loss. Baltimore, at 55-59, occupies 5th place in the American League East Division.

Baltimore used a timely hit from Christopher Clark to get the win. The left fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the tenth inning to put the Orioles ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"It was terrific getting this win," Clark said. "We put in a lot of work to do it."
