Granitto Sensational for Royals
The Kansas City Royals earned a win at Gary Carter Field, stopping the Montreal Expos, 8-1. Starting pitcher Jimmy Granitto played a big role in his team's success. The Royals move to 55-70 with the win, while the Expos drop to 36-89.

It was an impressive outing from the soft-spoken Granitto, who tallied 5 strikeouts in 9 innings and allowed only 4 hits. Granitto, who is tied for 5th in the AL with a 1 complete games, raised his record to 8-7 on the year with 115 strikeouts.

"I'll be honest," said Granitto. "I didn't have much left in the tank."
