Royals Win Nail-Biter
Behind a solid performance from right fielder Ernesto Melendez, the Kansas City Royals defeated the Los Angeles Angels, 9-8. Melendez was 4-6 with 2 doubles and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Royals. The win puts Kansas City at 2-1.

The Royals procured the win, in large part because of third baseman Ricky Springs. In the bottom of the 11th, he produced the game-winning run-scoring single.

In postgame comments, Melendez said he was glad to contribute to an exciting win.
