Royals Down Spiders, 6-3
The rain did not keep Kansas City and Cleveland from finishing their game.

Jerry Swain had a hand in Kansas City defeating Cleveland by the score of 6-3. Swain went 2 for 3 at the plate, scoring 1 times and driving in 1 runs. Victor Vasquez closed the door for Kansas City, picking up his 7th save of the year.

The Spiders had been locked in a 3-3 tie with the Royals going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 29-year old third baseman Tony Saxon came to the plate. Saxon hit a 2-run double on a 2-1 fastball from Cleveland hurler Ramon Rosas. It was Saxon's 4th double of the year.

Saxon expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."

Cleveland is 16-15 after the loss.
