Royals Win, 6-3, Over Montreal
The Montreal Expos got a superb performance from pitcher Maddux Bruns. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Kansas City. The Royals won the game, 6-3. Bruns threw 6.1 innings of 5-hit ball. Felix Bautista earned the save, his 38th, for the Royals. The Royals have now won 4 straight.

Kansas City used the timely hitting of Alan Louis to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Royals on top, 5-3. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"As well as we've been playing, I think we can play even better," said Kansas City manager Fraser Stewart.
