Royals Come Back Late, Nip Mets
Kansas City got a first-rate effort from pitcher Jimmy Granitto, who frustrated New York hitters en route to a 2-1 Royals triumph at Citi Field. Picking up the save was Raul Pirela. He's now 5 for 7 in save chances. The 6th-place Royals now have a win-loss record of 47-63.

Kansas City took a 2-1 lead on Juan Morales's 3rd home run of the season. The solo home run came off New York pitcher Eric Davis in the top of the ninth.

"If you ever get this game figured out," said New York manager Matt Young, "let me know."
